Which type of hair is typically fine and soft?

  1. Terminal

  2. Lanugo

  3. Vellus

  4. Sebaceous

The correct answer is: Lanugo

Terminal hair is typically thicker and coarser, so it is incorrect. Lanugo hair is typically found on newborns and begins to fall out within a few weeks, making it unlikely to be fine and soft. Sebaceous hair refers to the glands that produce oil, so it is also incorrect. Vellus hair is fine and soft, making it the correct answer.
