Answers:
Sunday is the beginning of the week in religious context and a day of the weekend in business context!.
"Tooth" here is an *attributive* noun, that is, a noun functioning much like an adjective!. As is TYPICAL of attributive nouns it takes a singular form (rather than the plural "teeth")!.
Same reason you don't have a shoesrack or a hairsbrush!.
