Which offense in the Texas Penal Code results in a charge of Assault causing Bodily Injury?

  1. Sex

  2. Exposes anus/genitals

  3. Requests, commands, or attempts to induce another

  4. Class "A"

The correct answer is: Class "A"

Assault causing Bodily Injury is defined in the Texas Penal Code as intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly causing bodily injury to another person. This means that intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly causing someone to have physical pain, illness, or any impairment would result in a charge of Assault causing Bodily Injury. Therefore, offenses such as Sex, Exposes anus/genitals, and Requests, commands, or attempts to induce another would not result in a charge of Assault causing Bodily Injury as they do not meet the definition of causing bodily injury to another person. Additionally, Class "A" is a classification of crimes in the Texas Penal Code and not an offense in itself, so it cannot be the correct answer.
