Answer and explanation:

The correct answer with it's due explanation is:

-Before unloading the revolver Ben should have noticed the position of the revolver and put a mark in the place where the chamber was aligned with barrel.

-Since each chamber is signed with a unique number on the diagram, when casing removed, he should have marked each cartridge so the number in the chamber correspond.

-He should divide every cartridge in different envelope.

-The identification tag should have been put in the trigger guard.

-The bullet must be removed without any direct contact so it won't deform, and put in a tissue paper.

Answer:

  • He did not photograph the scene.
  • He didn't wear gloves.
  • He contaminate the evidence.
  • He didn't write down the bullet number.

Explanation:

The <u>first step</u> before moving something from the scene would be to photograph it, since that way we can always see the position of the weapon and any other detail we need.

Immediately continue to wear gloves to touch any type of test and not contaminate it with our fingerprints.

Then we should review any type of evidence that may have been removed, like some hair by the wind or some dry spot that is dark.

Also is necessary to compare the bullet number with the weapon to see if they correspond and put dust for fingerprint detection on all the evidence and remove it with tape.

To finish the evidence they go in a bag and on this the label to not contaminate in any way, and to be able to carry out the studies that have to be carried out later.

A goal that is attainable for one person may be unattainable for another.<br> True<br> False
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Utterly true.

I once asked my wife to teach me to draw an Erlenmeyer flask. She showed me, and she's a good teacher. Then she said "Draw 50 of these. By the time you've done that, you should see how the lines work." She was wrong. My first flask was no worse nor better than the 50th one and I never did see how the lines worked.

I can do math, but my drawings look like I never graduated from Grade 1.
