The correct Answer is:
To determine which option is not correctly matched with the fungi causing hair loss, we will analyze each option provided in the question. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the First Option: Chiratophilus** - Chiratophilus is a type of fungus that grows on feathers, hair, and nails. - Since it grows on hair, it is associated with hair loss. - **Conclusion**: This option is correctly matched. 2. **Identify the Second Option: Pyrophilus** - Pyrophilus is a fungus that grows on burnt or fired substrates. - It does not grow on hair or any related substrates. - **Conclusion**: This option is not correctly matched as it does not cause hair loss. 3. **Identify the Third Option: Coprophilus** - Coprophilus is a fungus that grows on animal dung (as indicated by "copro," meaning dung). - It does not have any association with hair or hair loss. - **Conclusion**: This option is also not correctly matched. 4. **Identify the Fourth Option: None of the Above** - This option suggests that all previous options are correctly matched. - However, since both Pyrophilus and Coprophilus do not cause hair loss, this option is incorrect. ### Final Conclusion: The option that is not correctly matched with fungi causing hair loss is **Pyrophilus**.
