What does a fungistatic agent do to fungal spores or mycelium?

  1. Formulation

  2. Fungi

  3. Foaming Agent

  4. Fungicide

The correct answer is: Foaming Agent

A fungistatic agent inhibits the growth of fungi without necessarily killing them. Instead of directly killing fungal spores or mycelium like a fungicide does, a fungistatic agent only slows down or stops their growth temporarily. This distinction is important because using a fungistatic agent may not provide the same level of control as a fungicide when dealing with fungal infestations that require eradication. This is why the correct answer here is a foaming agent, as it is the term that describes the specific action of inhibiting the growth of fungal spores or mycelium without necessarily killing them.
