A nail tip should cover the nail plate from what to what?

  1. Cuticle to free edge

  2. Sidewall to sidewall

  3. Cuticle to sidewall

  4. Free edge to sidewall

The correct answer is: Sidewall to sidewall

This is correct because a nail tip should cover the entire surface or widest area of the nail plate, from one sidewall to the other. Option A is incorrect because the nail tip should not cover the cuticle area. Option C is incorrect because the nail tip should cover the entire nail plate, not just the area from cuticle to sidewall. Option D is incorrect because the nail tip should not extend all the way to the free edge, it should only cover the widest area of the nail plate.
