Explanation:

The prefix "mort - " means "death". A mortuary is a place where dead bodies are kept before burial or cremation, which is related to death. A tomb is also related to the final resting place of the dead. A time of mourning is about the act of mourning, not directly related to the physical place for the dead. A parting gift is about giving a gift when parting, not related to death. A rebirth is the opposite of death.

a tomb
