Question 47

Ringworm (tinea) is a fungal infection, not caused by worms, mites, or bacteria. Fungi like dermatophytes cause this skin condition.

The Latin word "carbunculus" (from which "carbuncle" is derived) means "small, glowing ember" (related to its appearance as a red, inflamed lesion). "Coal" is "carbo", "pointed shape" and "small pustules" don't match the Latin etymology.

Answer:

fungus
