The scientific definition of death is basically the death of the brain of a person. When the brain f a person stops working the boy of that person also stops working and scientifically the person can be considered as dead f there is no sign of physical or brain activity of that person is present. If the doctor is unable to find the pulse or heartbeat of a person the person would be considered as dead. The organs of a person stop responding after the death of a person’s brain and if the EEG machine shows a straight line then it proves that the person’s heart has stopped working and the body of the person will never be able to move again.
