The answer is the second one (cross contamination): occurs when items touch one another.

Explanation for each option:

  • Contamination: This generally refers to the introduction of foreign substances or elements to the evidence, but it does not specifically imply the interaction between two items.
  • Cross contamination: This is the correct term for when items touch one another and transfer material between them, which can compromise the integrity of the evidence.
  • Exposure: This term usually refers to the evidence being subjected to environmental factors, such as air, light, or moisture, which can degrade it over time.
  • Decontamination: This refers to the process of removing contaminants from an item or area, not the interaction between items.

For Question 11: The answer is Trace evidence.

Explanation:

  • Trace evidence refers to extremely small items such as hair, fibers, or other microscopic materials that can be transferred from one location to another and can be used to link a suspect to a crime scene. This type of evidence is a subset of physical evidence and can be crucial in forensic investigations.

Summary: Question 10: The answer is cross contamination. Question 11: The answer is Trace evidence.
