The correct option is C A-III, B-I, C-IV, D-II
All the four options mentioned in the question are the different stages of biological death. Death is the ultimate termination of functional life. It is the most important regulatory process which prevents overcrowding and brings recycling of materials.
There can be two types of death: clinical and biological.
During clinical death, heartbeat, pulse, breathing stops and pulse dilates.
During biological death, the functioning of the brain stops. Palor mortis is the stage during which the body becomes pale after death. Livor mortis is the settling of blood i the lower portion of body. Algor mortis is the reduction of body temperature following death. During rigor mortis, the muscles enter a prolonged phase of contraction after death resulting in the stiffness of the body.
