Question

Blood splatter on a wall in a series of rising and falling arcs is often caused by a severed artery?

Answer 1

Hello,

Yes,Blood splatter on a wall in a series of rising and falling arcs is often caused by a severed artery.

The reason is that arteries carry blood that directly connect to the heart. So When an artery is injured or cut open, a stream of blood splurges out and the motion is directed by the pumping of the heart. When the heart beats, the blood circulation cause the pressure to be stronger and the arc is rising where as when in between, the arc falls.

I hope the answer is helpful.

Thanks

Answer 2

Yes, blood splatter on a wall in a series of rising and falling arcs is often caused by a severed artery.

But as the injured party loses the blood, the pattern also changes.

Its distance, volume and length of the wound decreases and the pressure and volume also start to decline.

Blood splatter is an analysis which was adopted in 1954 after the Sheppard case.
