What is the tube-like pocket that contains the hair?

Follicle
Cuticle
Dermis
Scalp

The correct answer is: Follicle

A follicle is a tube-like pocket in the skin that contains the hair root. It provides nutrients and regulates the growth and shedding of hair. The other options are incorrect because the cuticle is the outermost layer of the hair itself, the dermis is the middle layer of skin that contains blood vessels and nerves, and the scalp is the skin on top of the head. These options are not specific to the tube-like pocket that contains the hair.
