Question 1 of 5
If the papilla of a hair follicle is destroyed,
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Step-by-step rationale for choice A being correct: 1. The papilla supplies nutrients and oxygen to the hair follicle. 2. Destruction of the papilla leads to loss of blood supply to the follicle. 3. Without blood supply, the follicle cannot sustain hair growth. 4. This results in hair production being affected. 5. Hence, the correct answer is A. Summary: - Choice B is incorrect as the color of hair is determined by melanin production in the hair bulb, not the papilla. - Choice C is incorrect as the papilla's role is crucial for hair production. - Choice D is incorrect as the type of hair produced (terminal or vellus) is determined by genetics and hormonal factors, not the papilla.
