Yawn - can't we report questions that ask us to do your homework?

Okay

1 - Violent Crime
2 - Murder is the smallest numerical category in the Part I offenses; true and false. Depending on what part 1 offenses are.
3 - same as 2.
4 - depends whose defintion we're talking about. But as typical w/questions like these, the questioner assumes that there is only one definition, anywhere?
5 - false there is no single common-law crime that involves breaking in and stealing. In common law, this is theft (for the stealing) and burglary (entry w/intention to commit a crime).
6. - false: theft is simply taking the property of another w/o permission
7 - see 2.
8 - "Crime Typology is a classification scheme used in the study and description of criminal behavior." If somebody creates a study called "Crime Typology" and defines it as "a classification scheme used in the study and description of criminal behavior" then Crime Typology is a classification scheme used in the study and description of criminal behavior.
9. "The use of the internet, e-mail, and other electronic communication technologies to stalk another person is" - not a crime in any jurisdiction not specifying it as such. It can be "white collar" if used for industrial epsionage, a bias crime if motivated by racial bias or a hate crime if it satsifies your state's explicit descripton of such crime.
10 - organized crime. The term "organized" in the question is meant to give it away.
