Hearsay evidence is based on what?

  1. Something seen by a third party

  2. Something heard by a third party

  3. Something written by a third party

  4. Direct evidence from a primary source

The correct answer is: Something heard by a third party

Hearsay evidence is based on information that was heard from a third party, as opposed to being seen or written by a third party. This type of evidence is not considered as reliable as direct evidence from a primary source, which is typically based on firsthand knowledge or observation. Therefore, options A, C, and D are not the answer because hearsay evidence cannot be based on something seen, written, or directly from a primary source.
