Which of the following is a definition of continuity of evidence?

Chain of custody controlled by a police service.
Unbroken chain of custody and control which protects integrity of an object.
Chain of custody unbroken and controlled by only one individual.
Evidence presented in proper sequence.

The correct answer is: Unbroken chain of custody and control which protects integrity of an object.

The correct answer is "Unbroken chain of custody and control which protects integrity of an object." This is a definition of continuity of evidence or chain of custody in the context of legal and law enforcement. It refers to the process of documenting every person who handled the evidence, the details of when and where, and maintaining its integrity by ensuring the object is not altered or tampered with in any way from the moment it's collected until it's presented in court. This is essential to establishing the authenticity and reliability of the evidence, hence it's very crucial in investigations and judicial proceedings.
