Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
Human papilloma virus (HPV) is a viral cause of wart formation. In the perineal area, these are known as genital warts and they can lead to cancer of the cervix or anus.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Basal cell carcinoma is the most common form of human malignancy and involves sun-exposed skin. This malignancy is generally very slow growing. However, it can become quite destructive and invasive if not diagnosed and treated in a timely manner. The typical complaint is of a nonhealing sore located on the face, ear, or other sun-exposed area. Although the lesions can vary, the typical lesion has a waxy/pearly appearance with a central indentation.
