Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: B

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The Epstein-Barr virus infects B lymphocytes, where it remains latent under the immune system's control. The EBV-infected cells can proliferate if the host becomes immunocompromised and/or the B lymphocytes acquire additional genetic abnormalities.
Helicobacter pylori leads to antigen-driven T-lymphocyte stimulation and subsequent B-lymphocyte activation. The B lymphocytes initially are polyclonal and depend entirely on T-cell stimulation. With time, the B-cell population can proliferate autonomously.
