2. The free edges of your fingernails and toenails are technically called the:

• A. Lunula (The lunula is the white crescent moon shape at the base of the nail)
• B. Matrix (The matrix is the area under the nail where new nail cells are produced)
• C. Hyponychium (This is the skin under the free edge of the nail)
• D. Free edge

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The free edges of your fingernails and toenails are the parts that extend beyond the fingertip or toe. These edges are commonly referred to simply as the "free edge" because they are not attached to the skin. The lunula is the white crescent moon shape at the base of the nail, the matrix is the area under the nail where new nail cells are produced, and the hyponychium is the skin under the free edge of the nail. Therefore, the correct answer is D.
