Your maternal grandparents are your mother's parents. Your paternal grandparents are your father's parents. As far as your question about Protestant the following I found in the internet:

A member of a Western Christian church whose faith and practice are founded on the principles of the Reformation, especially in the acceptance of the Bible as the sole source of revelation, in justification by faith alone, and in the universal priesthood of all the believers.

Answer 4

Maternal- Mothers parents
Paternal- Fathers parents
Protestant-
1.any Western Christian who is not an adherent of a Catholic, Anglican, or Eastern Church.
2.an adherent of any of those Christian bodies that separated from the Church of Rome during the Reformation, or of any group descended from them.
3.(originally) any of the German princes who protested against the decision of the Diet of Speyer in 1529, which had denounced the Reformation.

Answer 5

Maternal Grandparents are your biological grandparents on your Mothers side, Paternal your father's.

Protestant is one of the 3 main groups of Christianity.

Answer 6

Maternal grandparents are your mother's parents and Paternal is your father's parents. It's easy to remember maternal is what a mom is.... so, that will make it easier to know that the paternal is your dad's side.
