What is the name given to the pocket of epidermal and dermal cells that the hair grows within?
That would be the follicle. The hair follicle is a small tubular cavity containing the root of a hair; small muscles and sebaceous glands are associated with hair follicles.A mature hair follicle contains a bulb holding the dermal papilla cells, a hair shaft extending from the bulb through to the outer exterior of the epidermis, and a dermal sheath which provides an external covering of tissue around the bulb and along the length of the follicle.The hair follicle extends through the dermis, a hypodermis (a loose layer of connective tissue below the dermis), and a fat (or adipose) layer. In adults, molecular signals between the dermal papilla and the epidermal component of a follicle cause the hair to enter an active growth phase from an inactive phase.
What are the three layers of the inner root sheath?
The cuticle, Huxley's layer, and Henle's layer are the three layers of the inner root sheath of a hair follicle. The inner root sheath surrounds the hair shaft and helps protect it as it grows.
Does the hair bulb produce hair?
Only the cells of the hair bulb are alive to understand this more here is how the hair bulb if formed. Hair follicles forms a cluster of cells in the upper layer of the skin. These cluster of cells are called the primitive hair germ, which needs nourishment to grow into a developed hair follicle. To get nourishment it works all the way down into the lower layer of the skin. As it does, the cell cluster pulls the upper layer down with it creating a follicle called the root Sheath, out of which the hair will grow. The shape of this follicle then determines the shape of the hair shaft as it grows from the follicle.
What tissue gives rise to a plant root's hair and a human root hair?
In plants, root hairs originate from the epidermal cells of the root tissue, specifically from specialized root epidermal cells called trichoblasts. In humans, hair follicles in the skin produce root hairs, which are composed of keratinized cells that grow from the hair follicle.
The sac from which hair grows?
Hair follicle.

How is a hair formed?
Each hair develops from a group of epidermal cells at the base of a tubelike depression called a hair follicle, which extends from the surface into the dermis and contains the hair root. The epidermal cells at the base are nourished from dermal blood vesssels in a projection of connective tissue at the deep end of the follicle. As these epidermal cells divide and grow, older cells are pushed toward the surface. The cells that move upward and away from the utrient supply become keratinized and die. Their remains constitute the structure of a developing hair shaft that extends away from the skin.
What layer of the skin is the follicle an extension of?
The hair follicle is an inolentation of the Epidermis.
What are the three layers of the inner root sheath?
The cuticle, Huxley's layer, and Henle's layer are the three layers of the inner root sheath of a hair follicle. The inner root sheath surrounds the hair shaft and helps protect it as it grows.
How are the sebaceous glands associated with hair follicles?
Sebaceous glands secrets sebum into the hair follicle which keeps the hair and epidermal surface pliable and waterproof

What epithelial layer surrounds hair root?
Connective Tissue Sheath
The sac from which hair grows?
Hair follicle.
What does a hair follicle do?
the hair follicle is a skin organ that produces hair.
Hairs are produced within organ called?
Hairs are produced within an organ called the hair follicle, which is located in the dermis layer of the skin. Each hair follicle contains the necessary structures for hair growth, such as the root, bulb, and papilla.
Does human hair used by African Americans as weave pass hair follicle testing?
Human hair used in extensions has usually been stripped, retexturized, and colored, which destroys the cuticle layer of hair and can be seen immediately by someone who works with hair. Most hair used in extensions are purchased from India or Asia and is cut off the head of donors. Commonly in hair testing hair that has been plucked from the head must be used.
