What type of infection is Tinea Pedis?

  1. Bacterial infection of the throat

  2. Fungal infection of the nails

  3. Ringworm fungus of the foot

  4. Viral infection of the skin

The correct answer is: Bacterial infection of the throat

Tinea Pedis is commonly known as athlete's foot, which is a fungal infection that affects the skin on the feet. It is caused by various types of fungi, and the warm and moist environment of the feet provides an ideal breeding ground for these fungi to grow. Therefore, the correct answer is B: Fungal infection of the nails. Option A is incorrect because Tinea Pedis is not a bacterial infection of the throat. Option D is also incorrect because it is not a viral infection of the skin. Option C is a bit misleading as it mentions "Ringworm fungus of the foot," while technically correct, the more common and recognized term for this condition is athlete's foot.
