Athlete's foot, caused by fungal infections like Trichophyton, does not respire in the same way that animals do. Fungi obtain energy through a process called fermentation or respiration, utilizing organic matter. They absorb nutrients from their environment, typically from the keratin in skin cells, and some fungi can respire anaerobically, while others require oxygen for aerobic respiration. Essentially, they break down organic compounds to generate energy for growth and reproduction.
