To show                                                                                                          The sequencers





            The start of the process                                                                                         first, firstly, in/at the beginning, to begin with:



                                                                                                                             When a fish dies, at the beginning its body just sinks



                                                                                                                             into the soft mud.






            The next stages in the process                                                                                   after that / some time, (some time) later, when (that



                                                                                                                             has happened), next, the next thing which happens is




                                                                                                                             (that), following that:



                                                                                                                             After some time, the fish’s skeleton becomes covered




                                                                                                                             by a thick layer of mud.






            The stages which happen very soon  as soon as, immediately (after / after this), once:




            afterwards                                                                                                       Once the fish is completely covered, no oxygen



                                                                                                                             reaches it, so it stops decomposing
