Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The shaft is the visible part of the hair that sticks out of the skin. The hair root is in the skin and extends down to the deeper layers of the skin. It is surrounded by the hair follicle (a sheath of skin and connective tissue), which is also connected to a sebaceous gland.
Detailed explanation-2: -The hair shaft consists of a cortex and cuticle cells, and a medulla for some types of hairs.
Detailed explanation-3: -The shaft of the hair is the visible portion above the skin’s surface; this part of the hair has been completely keratinized and is therefore very strong.
