Question

paint chips, random glass fragments, and synthetic fibers all exhibit what type of characteristics?
individual
class
comparison
identification

Explanation:

In forensic science, class characteristics are properties of evidence that can be associated only with a group and not with a single source. Paint chips, random glass fragments, and synthetic fibers are examples of evidence that typically have class characteristics. They can be grouped based on common properties like color, composition (for paint), refractive index (for glass), or type of synthetic material (for fibers), but they cannot be uniquely linked to one specific origin without additional individualizing features (which these items usually lack in their basic forms presented here).

Answer:

Class
