What is another name for a red, circular patch of small blisters caused by a vegetable parasite?

  1. Asteatosis

  2. Malpractice

  3. Ringworm

  4. Scabies

The correct answer is: Ringworm

Asteatosis is incorrect because it refers to a medical condition involving dry skin. Malpractice is incorrect because it refers to negligent or improper professional treatment. Scabies is incorrect because it refers to a skin infection caused by mites. The correct answer is ringworm because it fits the description of a red, circular patch of small blisters and is caused by a vegetable parasite, not a medical condition, legal term or mite infection.
