Final answer:

Mechanical stunning can result in bone breakage and blood splash, as opposed to electric, chemical, or gas stunning. The electric force holds atoms together. Shattering glass is not a chemical reaction but a physical change.

Step-by-step explanation:

The type of stunning that can result in bone breakage and blood splash is mechanical stunning. Mechanical stunning often involves the use of a captive bolt pistol or a similar device that delivers a forceful blow to the head of an animal to render it unconscious. However, this force can sometimes be excessive or improperly applied, leading to unintended injuries such as bone breakage or blood splash in the carcass.

Looking at the forces responsible for holding an atom together, the correct answer is electric force. Specifically, it's the electromagnetic force that holds electrons in their orbit around the nucleus, and that binds protons and neutrons together in the nucleus.

In the context of a chemical reaction, shattering glass with a baseball is not a chemical reaction. It is a physical change because the chemical identity of the glass remains unchanged despite its physical form being altered. Corroding metal, fireworks exploding, lighting a match, and baking a cake are all examples of chemical reactions because in each of these processes, substances are chemically transformed into new products.
