What is the nail bed?

Part of the nail that is clipped during a manicure
Skin at the base of the nail
Area where the nail body rests
Outermost layer of the nail

The correct answer is: Part of the nail that is clipped during a manicure

The nail bed is actually the layer of skin located below the nail plate that provides a supportive base for the nail to rest on. It is not the part of the nail that is clipped during a manicure, as option A suggests. B, C, and D are also incorrect because they all refer to different parts or layers of the nail, but not the specific location of the nail bed.
