On a normal daily basis a human being loses up to 200 strands a day. Normal bodily function , just like shedding skin cells
Here is the answer your teacher is looking for:
Alopecia is the loss of head hair. Its causes are unclear, but it is an autoimmune disorder, and can be the result of stress.
Alopecia areata is thought to be an autoimmune disease in which the body mistakenly treats its hair follicles as foreign tissue and suppresses or stops hair growth. It is not contagious but may be hereditary

A number of things can cause it. If you're talking about getting older and going bald, it's because of genetics and also the fact that you produce less horomones than when you were young. Your body doesn't need the horomones it did before because you're not "productive" anymore. Less horomones means less hair. Hair can also fall out due to stress, poor diet, and pregnancy.

Old age and stress causes it to fall out.
Also if your hair is damaged it BREAKS off, not fall off
