When you get a paper cut on your thumb, are you cutting into an artery, a vein or a capillary

It would be a capillary because capillaries in your hands and fingers are closely packed together, meaning paper cuts can cause a lot of bleeding because of how concentrated blood can be in your hands.

Answer:

Capillary

Step-by-step explanation:

Capillaries are found in your hands and fingers so it makes more sense if its a paper cut on the thumb.
