Answer 2

Answer:

THE PURPOSE OF HORSESHOES

Horseshoes are quite ubiquitous: it would rare to come across a person who does not know what they look like.

Horseshoes are used to help aid in the durability of the hoof on working horses. The hoof itself is made up of the same stuff as your fingernail, called keratin. However, the hook has a soft and tender inner part called the frog  that can be injured. The hoof will naturally wear away when horses walk so adding a shoe onto the hoof helps to diminish that and keep the frog in healthy condition.
