A member asked:

Could i still control facial muscles when decapitated?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Facial muscles: The facial muscles are innervated by cranial nerves that eminate from the brain and control the movements. Although these nerves may remain intact after decapitation, without a blood supply, the brain cannot function.
