- B.
  
  6-8 times a year
- C.
  
  10-12 times a year
- D.
  
  Lifetime outbreaks every month
Correct Answer
A. 8-10 times a year

Explanation
The correct answer is 8-10 times a year. Herpes simplex virus Type II can cause recurrent outbreaks, with an average of 8-10 episodes per year. These outbreaks are characterized by the presence of genital herpes sores and blisters, as well as symptoms such as genital itching and throbbing. The virus can also lead to complications such as encephalitis, neonatal herpes, and certain cancers, particularly cervical cancers. The virus can remain latent in nerve cells and may periodically reactivate, leading to recurrent episodes.

While shingles, pneumonia, and herpes are also caused by the same virus, chickenpox is no longer prevalent in the United States due to the introduction of a vaccine.

Correct Answer
B. Sexually transmitted HPV's

Explanation
The correct answer is sexually transmitted HPV's. This answer is supported by the statement in the question that Types 6, 11, 16, and 18 are the most important strains that are high risk and sexually transmitted. This suggests that these specific strains of HPV are transmitted through sexual activity and pose a higher risk compared to other strains.

E7 complexes with retinoblastoma protein (Rb) thereby inactivating it.
- A.
  
  True
- B.
  
  False
Correct Answer
A. True

Explanation
The statement is true because E7 complexes with retinoblastoma protein (Rb), which leads to the inactivation of Rb. This interaction between E7 and Rb prevents Rb from carrying out its normal function, which is to regulate the cell cycle and inhibit cell proliferation. As a result, the inactivation of Rb by E7 can contribute to uncontrolled cell growth and the development of conditions such as cancer.
