The appendages of the skin are __________.

  1. Hair

  2. Sweat Glands

  3. Nails

  4. Sebaceous Glands

The correct answer is: Nails

The appendages of the skin are nail, hair, sweat glands, and sebaceous glands. Out of all the choices given, A, B, and D are incorrect. Hair and sweat glands are considered as part of the appendages of the skin, but they are not the only ones. Sebaceous glands are also considered as part of the appendages of the skin, but they are not the correct answer in this question. Therefore, the correct answer must be C, which is nails. Nails are also part of the appendages of the skin, and they provide protection to the fingertips and enhance their sensitivity.
