Detailed explanation-1: -Insects follow a predictable sequence of inhabiting a dead body, known as insect succession. Blowflies, usually the first to inhabit a dead body, undergo four stages of complete metamorphosis: egg, larva (first instar, second instar, third instar), pupa, and adult.
Detailed explanation-2: -Insect succession is the process of the orderly replacement of one insect species by another over time, as the decomposition of an animal carcass progresses. This process is driven by the availability of food, moisture, and the changing environmental conditions of the carcass as it decomposes.
Detailed explanation-3: -Insects colonize cadavers in a predictable sequence, also known as insect succession. The first to arrive are the necrophagous species, drawn by the strong scent of decomposition. Blow flies can invade a corpse within minutes of death, and flesh flies follow close behind.
Detailed explanation-4: -The six stages of decomposition he first described are: fresh, bloated, active decay, advanced decay, dry stage and remains [1].
Detailed explanation-5: -In entomological studies, five stages of decomposition are commonly described: (1) Fresh, (2) Bloat, (3) Active Decay, (4) Advanced or Post-Decay, and (5) Dry Remains.
