Answer to Question 1

1
The lunula is the pale, crescent-shaped area at the proximal end of each nail. The periungual tissue surrounds the nail plate and the free edge of the nail. Paronychia is inflammation at the base of the nail plate. The nail matrix is undifferentiated epithelial tissue from which the nails arise.

Answer to Question 2

3
Protein digestion begins in the stomach. Further digestion of this nutrient takes place in the small intestine. The pancreas, gallbladder, and colon do not digest protein.
