Humid Heat is the Specific Heat of humid air.
According to the definition, we have gas and vapor; Therefore we talk about humidity. The answer should be Humid Heat and not specific heat.
The correct answer is [B].

I think specific heat is right because in gases and vapour case it's called specific heat, and in liquid cases, it's called sensible heat.

Humid heat is also specific heat. So Specific heat is the right answer.

The right answer is humid heat.
Specific heat would have been the answer if the total mass of air+vapor would have been 1 lb but in question mass of air only is 1 lb hence the total mass of air + vapour will be greater than 1 lb.
