Fungicidal refers to substances that can destroy fungi, and virucidal refers to substances that can destroy viruses. While all three types of substances (bactericidal, fungicidal, and virucidal) are designed to eliminate microorganisms, the correct answer in this context is A, as it focuses on bacteria specifically.
