What is Tinea Versicolor also known as?

  1. Ringworm

  2. Tri-color yeast infection

  3. Impetigo

  4. Warts

The correct answer is: Tri-color yeast infection

Tinea Versicolor, also known as pityriasis versicolor, is a skin infection caused by the yeast Malassezia. It is characterized by small, discolored patches on the skin and is not related to ringworm (A). It is also not a yeast infection (B), which is typically caused by Candida. Impetigo (C) is a bacterial skin infection, and warts (D) are caused by a virus. Thus, the correct answer is B, as it accurately describes the condition and its cause.
