Answer:

The correct answer is C. Athlete’s foot

Explanation:

Pathogens are living organisms or other substances that can produce a disease; these include bacteria, fungi, protozoans, among others that lead to different diseases, for example, a specific type of bacteria can lead to syphilis. In the case of the athlete's foot, this is a condition that is caused by a pathogen because this is the result of a fungus called Tychopython that develops in the skin of the foot causing itchiness, swelling and other symptoms as the skin is negatively affected by the fungus. Thus, the condition caused by pathogens is athlete's foot.
