Correct Answer: lying


Solution : The correct option will be the third option.

In this context, lying is the appropriate choice, as it describes the person's position—lying down or reclining—in relation to the pool of blood. The use of "lying" helps convey the scene more accurately, indicating the person's posture at the time of the incident.

Therefore, the correct answer is lying.
