Answer: Typeface, often called a font, is a set of lettering or characters that have specific characteristics for design, size, weight, italics, etc. Serif font is a sub category of typeface. If a font is serif, it has small lines or characters added to the ends of the characters to exaggerate and/or decorate the characters in their basic form. A sans-serif font is the opposite; the characters of a font are without embellishment or decor.

Explanation: it is the sample response

A typeface is a particular design of type.

Serifs are semi-structural details or small decorative flourishes at the ends of some strokes that have made letters and symbols. For example, most teachers like it when their students use Times New Roman font. Sans serif does not have these details or flourishes. Another example would be the Arial font.
