Hello. I recently asked a question about what state of matter living things 
are, and if "life" could be considered its own state of matter. I was pleased 
with the response, and now I have another question, so I will try MadSci again: 
What exactly is death? When is a living organism considered dead? I've heard 
that there are many definitions to this, but when I searched in Google about 
death, I mostly found spiritual answers to this question. Thank you for your 
help.
