Explanation: When hair is forcibly removed from the head, the little chunk of flesh at the end of the hair is called the hair follicle or root sheath. The hair follicle is the structure that surrounds the base of the hair shaft and contains the cells responsible for producing new hair growth. The root sheath is the part of the hair follicle that surrounds the hair shaft and helps to anchor the hair in the skin.
