Answer: Liver Mortis

Step-by-step explanation:

Liver Mortis can be defined as the condition in which the blood supply of body will stop because the heart stops working after death.

The heart stops pumping the blood to various parts of the body as a result of this the blood accumulates in the lower portion of the body because of the effect of gravity.

This also gives dark coloration to the body and it appears purple in color, condition known as liver mortis or post mortem hypostasis.
