Question

9 multiple answer 2 points semen found at the scene of a rape direct circumstantial biological physical 10 multiple answer 2 points

Explanation:

• Circumstantial: Semen at a rape scene is circumstantial as it implies the act but doesn't directly prove the perpetrator's identity or the act without other evidence.
• Biological: Semen is a biological substance (contains biological material like sperm cells, proteins), so it's biological evidence.
• Physical: Physical evidence includes tangible items from the scene, and semen (a physical substance) falls under this.
• Direct is incorrect because semen alone doesn't directly prove the rape act or the perpetrator without additional context (e.g., direct observation is direct evidence, semen is not direct in that sense).

Answer:

B. Circumstantial, C. Biological, D. Physical
