Answer:

Decomposition begins several minutes after death with a process called autolysis, or self-digestion

24-72 hours after death the internal organs decompose.

3-5 days after death the body starts to bloat and blood-containing foam leaks from the mouth and nose.

8-10 days after death the body turns from green to red as the blood decomposes and the organs in the abdomen accumulate gas.
