Final answer:

Ad hominem attacks focus on attacking the character of the opponent rather than their argument's logic.


Explanation:

Ad hominem attacks the character of the opposition instead of their logic. An example would be saying, "My opponent is an inefficient slob; clearly, he has no idea how to manage his own life." This is attacking the person rather than addressing their argument.
