    • Afternoon

    • Morning and night

    • Evening

    Correct Answer

    Nails grow faster in summer than in winter and faster on the right hand than the left.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Nails grow faster in summer than in winter due to increased blood flow and higher metabolic activity in warmer temperatures. Additionally, nails on the dominant hand (usually the right hand for right-handed individuals) tend to grow faster because of increased use and stimulation. Therefore, it is true that nails grow faster in summer and faster on the right hand than the left.

    Gloves of all descriptions are the first step in improving the hands.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Wearing gloves can help protect the hands from various hazards such as cuts, burns, and chemicals. By providing a barrier between the hands and potential dangers, gloves can prevent injuries and improve hand safety. Therefore, it can be said that gloves are indeed the first step in improving the hands.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    Paraffin wax is an excellent hand-softener.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Paraffin wax is not an excellent hand-softener. While it is commonly used in spa treatments and beauty products for its moisturizing properties, it is not considered the best option for softening hands. Other ingredients, such as shea butter or coconut oil, are more effective in providing long-lasting hydration and improving the softness of the skin. Therefore, the statement that paraffin wax is an excellent hand-softener is false.

    Toenails grow very slowly, taking ______ to renew themselves.

    • 10 to 14 months

    • 10 to 16 months

    • 10 to 18 months

    Correct Answer
    A. 10 to 18 months
    Explanation
    Toenails grow at a very slow pace, which means it takes a considerable amount of time for them to fully renew themselves. The given answer of "10 to 18 months" indicates that it can take anywhere between 10 to 18 months for toenails to completely grow out and replace themselves.
