6. It can flatulate

As mentioned earlier, just like the phenomenon of moans and groans caused by air in the lungs, here it applies to the air in the stomach. A corpse can experience flatulence, which is the expulsion of intestinal gases, for several reasons.

Since digestion continues as described earlier, intestinal bacteria begin to metabolize substances in the intestines, including undigested food and fecal matter. This leads to the production of gases such as carbon dioxide, hydrogen, and methane.

These bacteria involved in the metabolism create internal fermentation. Since a corpse can no longer control the muscles of the body, including the muscles of the sphincter, post-mortem flatulence is released through the anus.
