No the hair itself is actually dead cells, just like the finger and toe nails. The root of the hair is supplied with blood but not the hair.
I disagree.. Your hair is alive, that is how it grows. Your hair breathes!!

No. Hair is dead. Hair follicles are the only alive part of the hair. They're what grow and contribute their dead cells to hair growth.

lots of hair almost 100,000 just on your head.
The rats hair main function is to maintain body temperature, just like the hair on humans reduces loss of heat by radiation. They are different that the hair covers the entire rat, where as it is mostly on the top of the head for humans.
Blondes- with approximately 140,000 hairs on the head. Brown- 110,000 Black- 108,000 Red- 90,000
They don't really "do" anything it's just like how humans have hair on their heads.
Depends on each animal. On humans it seems they have no function except the head hair which has a protective function against heat and cold on the head.
The usual technique for getting rid of head lice is to shave off all the hair, so the lice are not hidden by the hair, and then the lice can be individually removed with tweezers. For those who are unwilling to lose their hair, it is also possible to get special shampoo that kills lice.
It's normal for humans to have hair all over, though in some places it may be very fine and considerably lighter in color than the hair on top of the head.
A pin has a head but no hair
Yes, fleas like hair and fur. So obviously the can suck human blood. Like the common head louse it prefers clean hair or fur.
No they do not eat other humans hair for their hair to grow🤦🏽
