Chapter 8 Blood and Spatter

clumping of cells caused by an antigen—antibody response

• antigen

• agglutination

• reaction in which antibodies attach to specific antigens; causes agglutination in cross blood-type transfusions

• blood drop created solely as a result of gravity

angle at which blood strikes a target surface relative to the horizontal plane of the target surface

• area of convergence

• satellite

• angle of impact

• area of origin

proteins secreted by white blood cells that attach to specific antigens

• antibodies

• antigen–antibody response

• antigen

• clumping of cells caused by an antigen—antibody response

substance that provokes an immune response in the body

• antigen

two-dimensional view of the intersection of lines formed by drawing a line through the main axis of at least two drops of blood that indicates the general area of the source of the blood spatter

• area of origin

• area of convergence

• area of convergence

• cast-off pattern

the location of a blood source viewed in three dimensions as determined by projecting angles of impact of individual bloodstains

• area of convergence

• angle of impact

• area of origin

• wipe

blood projected onto a surface as a result of being flung from an object in motion

• cast-off pattern

• passive drop

• passive drop

• swipe

blood drop created solely as a result of gravity

• passive drop

• satellite

• spine

• swipe

smaller droplets of blood projected from larger drops of blood upon impact with a surface

• satellite

• passive drop

• spine

• wipe
