A Body Part inside another Body Part

In one of his silly question mood Grandpa says:
" Can you name a body part that is entirely inside (within) another body part but some distance away?"
Taking the clue from his last question I proudly answered:
" That is easy. Ear inside Heart!"
" Correct. Now is there another simple combination like that? No complicated medical terminology from Med School Books!"
Is there? Simple?
