  2. Explanation of Q1.
    Athlete's foot is a common and contagious skin disease that causes itching, scaling, flaking, and sometimes blistering of the affected areas.

    Its medical name is tinea pedis.

    Tinea pedis is caused by fungi such as Epidermophyton floccosum.
    These fungi are typically transmitted in moist communal areas where people go barefoot, such as around swimming pools or in locker rooms, and require a warm moist environment like the inside of a shoe to incubate.

  3. Explanation of Q4.
    The plastid is a major double-membrane organelle found in the cells of plants and algae.
    They often contain pigments used in photosynthesis, and the types of pigments present can change or determine the cell's color.

    A lysosome is a membrane-bound cell organelle found in most animal cells. they are spherical vesicles containing hydrolytic enzymes.
    lysosomes act as the waste disposal system of the cell by digesting unwanted materials in the cytoplasm, both from outside of the cell and obsolete components inside the cell. For this function they are popularly referred to as "suicide bags" or "suicide sacs" of the cell.

    Dictyosomes are stacks of flat, membrane-bound cavities that together comprise the Golgi apparatus. Within the dictyosomes, proteins are stored, modified, sorted, and packed into vesicles for further transport. Whereas dictyosomes in animal cells are stacked tightly together, the dictyosomes in plant cells are dispersed in the cytoplasm, making them difficult to identify as the Golgi apparatus.

    Peroxisomes are organelles found in virtually all eukaryotic cells.
    They are involved in the catabolism of very long chain fatty acids, branched chain fatty acids, D-amino acids, and polyamines, reduction of reactive oxygen species - specifically hydrogen peroxide and biosynthesis of plasmalogens.
