    1. A bloodstain pattern analyst can effectively analyze a blood-letting event using photographs taken at the scene; provided the photographs include overall measurements, the predominant stains are represented with a scale, and _________________________________.
      1. the camera is on a tripod
      2. the means to determine that the camera was perpendicular and parallel to the target is present
      3. the photographer uses a wide-angle lens equivalent to 28mm
      4. a lead-card is provided in the frame
    2. The distribution of bloodstains on a target is called:
      1. Splatter
      2. Splash
      3. Spatter
      4. Spurts
    3. This bloodstain pattern is characteristic of blunt-force trauma-type injuries:
      1. Impact spatter
      2. Flow
      3. Pooled blood
      4. Voids
    4. This occurs when a blood-letting source remains stationary in one area for a period of time sufficient to result in the passive accumulation of blood:
      1. Impact spatter
      2. Flow
      3. Pooled blood
      4. Voids
    5. This is the absence of blood from an otherwise continuous stain:
      1. Impact spatter
      2. Flow
      3. Pooled blood
      4. Voids
    6. This pattern occurs as the result of the movement of a volume of blood on a surface due to the pull of gravity, or the movement of surface upon which it was deposited, and before the blood had dried:
      1. Impact spatter
      2. Flow
      3. Pooled blood
      4. Voids
    7. This pattern occurs when blood is forced out of an opening under pressure by the breech of an artery or large vein:
      1. Drip trail
      2. Projected blood
      3. Misting pattern
      4. Transfer pattern
    8. This is a bloodstain pattern resulting from blood reduced to a spray of micro-drops as a result of the force applied:
      1. Drip trail
      2. Projected blood
      3. Misting pattern
      4. Transfer pattern
    9. This bloodstain pattern occurs as the result of the movement of a blood source between two points:
      1. Drip trail
      2. Projected blood
      3. Misting pattern
      4. Transfer pattern
    10. This bloodstain pattern is the result of blood being expelled from the nose, mouth, or a wound and caused by the blood having been mixed with the flow of air:
      1. Projected blood
      2. Expectoration
      3. Impact spatter
      4. Cast-off
