Answer to Question 1

D
Ringworm is caused by fungi.

Answer to Question 2

A
Hippocrates, born in 460 BC on the island of Cos in the Mediterranean, was a brilliant, progressive physician and teacher. He rejected the belief in the supernatural origin of disease and adopted a system of physical assessment, observation, and record keeping as an integral part of patient care. As his patient-centered care approach and medical ethics were adopted, Hippocrates was called the Father of Medicine and is credited with the Hippocratic Oath, which is still taken by physicians today.
