Question

While washing her hair, Olivia noticed that she was losing a lot of hair. She visited a clinic, and the physician reassured her that her hair would grow back. How do you think Olivia’s hair will grow back?

Answer 1

answer:

The cells in the root of the hair are dividing rapidly. A new hair is formed and pushes the club hair (a hair that has stopped growing or is no longer in the anagen phase) up the follicle and eventually out. During this phase the hair grows about 1 cm every 28 days.
