Hepatitis B

B.

HIV

C.

D.

H. Pylori

Correct option is C


Sol. Human Papilloma Virus (HPV), especially types 16 and 18, is the primary cause of cervical cancer. It spreads through sexual contact and infects cervical epithelial cells, causing abnormal changes that can turn into cancer. HPV vaccination is an effective preventive measure.
Explanation of each option:
· (a) Hepatitis B – Causes liver cancer, not cervical; transmitted via blood or sexual contact.
· (b) HIV – Increases susceptibility to infections but doesn’t directly cause cervical cancer.
· (c) HPV – Correct. Persistent infection with high-risk HPV strains leads to cervical cancer.
· (d) H. Pylori – Associated with gastric ulcers and stomach cancer, not cervical.
