A Correct answer
Explanation

Fingernails grow at an average rate of approximately 3 millimeters per month, so it takes about 6 months for a fingernail to grow from the cuticle (base) to the free edge (tip). This growth rate can vary based on age, nutrition, health status, and which hand is dominant (fingernails on the dominant hand typically grow slightly faster).
