Answer to Question 1

Correct Answer: 1.5

Answer to Question 2

Correct Answer: 4
Genital herpes may occur with 2 to 10 days after exposure to the herpes virus. Painful red papules appear in the genital area. Syphilis is characterized in the early stage of the disease by a painless chancre. The chancre appears at the site of inoculation. Gonorrhea is characterized by dysuria and a milky white discharge in the male. Women may be asymptomatic until the disease is advanced but may experience dysuria, abnormal menses, increased vaginal discharge and dyspareunia. Chlamydia may also be asymptomatic and not become symptomatic until the disease is advanced.
