Answer:

How far away the bullets were fired

Step-by-step explanation:

Greiss test is a chemical test common with a crime scene and it is used to detect gunpowder residues that are very minute and hard to find.

The gun residues offers information about the distance of the shooter from the victim.

It determines if the crime was suicidal or not and if the crime occurred as a result of self defense.
