Basically because your skin has several layers to it (see link, below), and the layer that has the blood vessels capable of bleeding in it is further down than a superficial scrape would affect.

In order to identify the most recent common ancestor of an animal, the physical and genetic makeup of the organisms must be compared. The two organisms must have striking similarities in order to be considered as closely related.
Despite the difference in their size, the domestic ferret has a great resemblance with the features of an Eastern European polecat. In addition, they have the ability to cross-breed with polecats. Therefore, the most recent ancestor of the ferret is the Eastern European polecat.
This took a long time to type cuz I am a slow typer. But I hope I got the answer correct! Hope you have a great day!:)
The homeostasis of the human body works like a machine set at a particular standard. If the factors deviate from the standard values, the homeostatic mechanism come into action.
For example, if a cell requires certain protein, the respective genes get a signal and get activated. The cell start synthesizing the protein and when sufficient amount is made, there is a feedback loop, which allows the same protein to stop the synthesis as well. A lot of organs and cellular systems are involved in regulating the synthesis of this protein.
This is similar to the cooling system. If we set the temperature of the cooling system to certain degree, it will start cooling the room till the required temperature is reached. As soon as the temperature is acquired, the system cut-off automatically and the required temperature is maintained.
DNA, also known as deoxyribonucleic acid, is the molecule that contains the genetic code of organisms; a genetic code that determines all the characteristics of a living thing.
No, although there are several theories with increasing evidence, there is still no way to know for sure how it occurred. The great mystery of the beginning of universe is way too vast and vague. Theories can only be proven by presenting a solid proof, but great creations such as universe itself doesn't have to be solved. Various possibilities must have happened or there must be a one conclusion leading to its existence; but moreover, it is not our problem to solve. The confirmation of beginning of its existence will only feed the curiosity of humans.
