Can anybody tell me pls?

Question

Suupose an alive chicken is left on the moon.After death will it get decomposed?

Answer 1

well it depends... if it was in a space suit then the air would need to have bacteria in it to aid in the process... if it was just put on moon, it wouldnt... in fact it would be torn apart because there is no air pressure in space so it would essentially dissipate into nothing

Answer 2

Maybe, but very slowly. Decomposition happens when dead flesh is eaten by scavengers, including carrion birds, insects, and microbes, and when the elements destroy the flesh. The only "element" on the Moon, in the sense of weather, is the Sun. The Moon does have a cycle of days and nights, with each being about two weeks long. Without wind and running water, it's unlikely that the Sun alone will do much to destroy the chicken's corpse. And of course, there are no animals to eat the body, either. And the Moon does not host any microbes. However, there are many types of microbes inside the chicken's body. These microbes will be the main source of decomposition, but it's uncertain if any microbes inside the chicken could survive on the Moon for long enough to consume it if they would be inclined to do so in the first place. In any event, with only one tiny percentage of the usual factors that contribute to decomposition, it could only happen extremely slowly, if at all.

Answer 3

an alive chicken on the moon would not be alive very long. it would quickly suffocate and probably burst in the vaccuum of space since the moon has no atmosphere. This being said, what is left of the chicken would not "decompose" as this would imply that there are bacteria and fungi that could eventually break the animal down into usable products and wastes but as there is no life on the moon and no atmosphere, what is left of the chicken would probably just stay there until it is disturbed by an outside force.

Answer 4

There will be decomposition from the inside out as the gut bacteria start devouring the poor thing. As oxygen sources are depleted some of the bacteria may evolve to take opportunities on what is left.

Well, so long as you can keep a nice and warm campfire to keep the poor thing nice a thawed.

Finally, when the next meteorite falls the poor thing will be finally and totally decomposed.

Answer 5

You seem somewhat youthful so it would nicely be a weigh down. spend time playing your pals and in case you nonetheless sense a similar after some weeks why no longer take a deep breathe and tell the article of you affections the way you sense about them?. i'm disabled and my well being has were given so undesirable this year I even ought to pass in a wheelchair. initially see your gp. they are going to direct you maximum proper on well being themes. Or in case you're disabled and desire information with something get in contact along with your community council place of work or social amenities. they're tremendous those who're quite helping me with the help of my issues.

Answer 6

Yes, but due to the cold temp on the moon it would be at a slower rate.

Answer 7

No, in the shade the temp is almost absolute zero, kinda like being in a freezer.

Answer 8

Contact NASA right away! They are probably waiting for this fantastic question!

Answer 9

yes i can.But should I?(lol)
No chicken does not.Due lack of atmoshere micro organism do not survive on moon.so they do not cause decomposition, as you know that micro organism cause decomposition.

Answer 10

It's not a physics question
