Question: 1 / 350

What does alopecia refer to?

Rapid hair growth

Abnormal hair loss

Alopecia refers to abnormal hair loss and is characterized by partial or complete hair loss on the scalp or body. Rapid hair growth, gray hair, and thick hair are all unrelated to alopecia. Rapid hair growth often pertains to individuals who experience faster than average hair growth. Gray hair is the loss of pigment in the hair, which is a normal occurrence as one ages. Thick hair refers to hair that is denser and coarser in texture, and not necessarily related to hair loss. Therefore, option B is the correct answer as it specifically pertains to the abnormality of hair loss.
