Nails are found on the ends of the digits (thumbs, fingers, and toes). Nails help to protect the ends of these digits. Each nail bed is attached to the top of the terminal phalanx (bone) of each digit. The nail itself is made up of cornified (hardened) outer cell layers of the epidermis. The nails grow continuously from their roots. |
