Answer: Hair growth does is not affected by metabolism.

Explanation:

Metabolism describes every biochemical reaction that goes on in your body. All the other options that are given above are affected by metabolism. The word metabolism can also refer to all chemical reactions that occur in a living organisms including digestion and the transport of substances between different cells. Metabolism is usually divided into two categories catabolism, the breaking down of organic matter by way of cellular respiration and anabolism, the building up of components of cells such as proteins and nucleic acids. However, hair growth is mainly dependent on the nutrients that you take.
