Why is that you can FEEL a paper cut, but it often does NOT bleed?

• Epithelium is vascular and has a direct nerve supply

• Epithelium is avascular and has a direct nerve supply

• Epithelium is vascular and does not have a direct nerve supply

• Epithelium is avascular and does not have a direct nerve supply

This type of tissue includes ligaments, tendons, and cartilage
