Across
- 3. A change in the shape and direction of a bloodstain due to the influence of gravity or movement of the object.
- 7. Bloodstain pattern(s) resulting from blood exiting the body under pressure from breached artery
- 8. A bloodstain pattern resulting from a liquid that dripped into another liquid, at least one of which was blood.
- 9. A bloodstain pattern resulting from blood drops that traveled in the same direction as the impact force.
- 12. The characteristic of a bloodstain that indicates the direction blood was moving at the time of deposition
- 13. It's usually caused by blood from an internal injury mixing with air from the lungs being expelled through the nose, mouth or an injury to the airways or lungs.
- 14. The trajectory of a blood drop, which can be established by its angle of impact and directionality angle.
Down
- 1. Patterns are created when the object that is used in the attack is swung and the blood on the object is swung onto a nearby surfacedirectionality
- 2. Blood directed back towards the source of energy or force that caused the spatter
- 4. The acute angle formed between the direction of a blood drop and the plane of the surface it strikes
- 5. The path of the blood drop as it moves through space, from the impact site to the target
- 6. Evidence that liquid blood has come into contact with a surface
- 8. The angle (gamma) between the long axis of a spatter stain and a defined reference line on the target.
- 10. Blood (or another liquid substance) that was present on the barrel of the firearm and that has been withdrawn deeper into the barrel as a result of, or during, the process of firing.
- 11. Rings in blood that result when blood containing air bubbles dries and retains the bubble's circular configuration as a dried outline
