Cervical Cancer Is Often Described as a "Sexually Transmitted Cancer

Cervical cancer is often described as a "sexually transmitted cancer" because infection with papillomavirus (wart virus) is a major risk factor.The strains of human papillomavirus that promote cervical cancer do so by:

A) Production of a protein that stimulates growth factor receptors on the cell surface.
B) Production of a protein that is closely related to the Ras protein.
C) Introduction of a viral oncogene with tyrosine-specific protein kinase activity.
D) Introduction of a viral oncogene that is closely related to the product of the human myc oncogene.
E) Production of viral proteins that bind tightly to the human p53 and pRb proteins.
