A fingerprint is an example of what type of evidence?

Documentary
Digital
Trace
Direct

The correct answer is: Trace

A fingerprint is an example of trace evidence, which refers to physical evidence that is often left behind and can be used to link a person or object to a particular location, person, or event. Documentary evidence (A) refers to written or recorded evidence, such as contracts or letters. Digital evidence (B) refers to evidence that is stored or transmitted electronically, such as emails or text messages. Direct evidence (D) refers to evidence that directly proves a fact, such as an eyewitness account. None of these types of evidence apply to fingerprints, making trace evidence the correct answer.
