Answer:

A nail grows from a deep layer of living epidermal tissues, called the nail matrix, at the proximal end of the nail.

Hope this helps

Photochemotherapy: also called P-UVA. It consists of the combination of UVA (a type of UV light) radiation after the local or oral administration of a psoralen that acts as a sensitizing photo. It is used alternately in patients for whom UVB (another type of UV) has no effect, as P-UVA is more effective and longer-lasting, but is associated with basiloma (basal cell carcinoma) and melanoma.

<span>Increased activity of merocrine sweat glands

Merocrine refers to the exocrine glands (or cells) whose secretions are excreted outside of the cell from the secretory cells, then into an epithelial-walled duct(s), and finally onto the surface of the body. Merocrine secretions from the sweat glands are specifically called eccrine. 

Sweat glands are structures of the skin that produce sweat in order to cool the body upon evaporation of the sweat. As a person grows older, his sweat glands become less active. This could impair perspiration or sweating, and increases the risks of overheating in the elderly. </span>
