**Question:**
When you get a paper cut that bleeds, how deep into the skin is the cut?

**Diagram Description:**
The image presents a detailed cross-section of human skin with various layers labeled. 

1. (Topmost layer) - Stratum corneum
2. Second layer - Epidermis
3. Third layer - Stratum granulosum
4. Fourth layer - Dermis
5. Fifth layer - Stratum spinosum
6. Subcutaneous tissue (not labeled but part of the diagram)
7. Sweat gland
8. Hair follicle
9. Blood vessel
10. Nerve
11. Sebaceous (oil) gland
12. Diagram pointing to a blood vessel indicating bleeding.

**Select one:**
- a. stratum corneum
- b. epidermis
- c. stratum granulosum
- d. dermis
- e. stratum spinosum

**Explanation:**
The diagram illustrates the various layers of the skin and associated structures such as hair follicles, sweat glands, and blood vessels. When a paper cut bleeds, it indicates that the cut has reached the dermis layer, where blood vessels are located.
