The correct option is A Ringworm

2) Pinworm infection is an infection of the large intestine and anal area by a small, white parasite, pinworm. Pinworms are also called Threadworm due to their thread-like appearance.

4) Tapeworms are flatworms that can live in the intestines and cause infection.

So the correct answer is A ‘Ringworm’.
