Answer 1

The answer is **medulla**.The medulla is the innermost layer of the hair shaft. It's often a fragmented or discontinuous layer, and its appearance can vary (even within the same hair). It's characterized by those "spaghetti-like strands" which contain the pigment granules that give hair its color.
