Answer 1

Ringworm is the red, circular patch of small blisters caused by a vegetable parasite and is also known as tinea.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is 1) Ringworm.

Tinea, also known as ringworm, is a red, circular patch of small blisters caused by a vegetable parasite. Although it is commonly referred to as ringworm, it is not caused by a worm but rather by the same fungus that causes athlete's foot. The rash caused by ringworm appears as a ring-shaped rash on the arms, legs, head, neck, or trunk.
