What is the target of fungicides?

Viruses
Bacteria
Fungi
Mites

The correct answer is: Fungi

Fungicides are a type of pesticide specifically designed to target and kill fungi, making option C the correct answer. Option A, viruses, is incorrect because fungicides are not effective against viral infections. Option B, bacteria, is also incorrect as fungicides are not designed to target bacteria. Option D, mites, is incorrect because while there are some fungicides that may have an effect on certain types of mites, their primary target is fungi. It is important to note that using fungicides to target organisms other than fungi can be harmful to the environment and other organisms.
