Explanation:

1. The Seven S's of crime - scene investigation include secure, scan, search, safeguard, sketch, seize, and submit. So, "secure, scan, search" is correct.
2. Knives should be stored in a rigid container to immobilize the knife and protect personnel and evidence.
3. A mid - range photo ties a specific piece of evidence to a known feature in the room. Overall photos show the entire scene, broad is not a standard term in this context, and specific photos focus only on the evidence.
4. Dry trace evidence is typically stored in a paper bindle/paper bag to prevent static and contamination.
5. Moist biological trace evidence is stored in an air - tight unbreakable container to prevent drying out and contamination.
6. Liquid evidence is stored in an air - tight unbreakable container to prevent spillage and evaporation.
7. Three ways to seal evidence bags are using tape, staples, and heat - sealing (if the bag is heat - sealable).
8. Fingerprints are a very strong source of evidence for placing an individual at a crime scene as they are unique to each person. Eyewitness testimony can be unreliable, and clothing fibers and blood evidence may not be as conclusive in placing an individual at the scene.
