+Rigor mortis is the transient stiffness of the body's muscles after [Death](/wiki/death). It results from complex biochemical changes, primarily the depletion of [ATP](/wiki/atp) within muscle cells, preventing fiber separation and causing the characteristic rigidity. This temporary state is one of the recognizable signs of biological cessation.
