Which of the following characteristics of latent viruses is false

A) Examples of human latent viral infections include chickenpox, JC, and
BK viruses
B) Latent viruses are often associated with the lysogenic cycle of infection
C) Latent viruses do not produce disease symptoms unless triggered by
some factor
D) Latent viruses are most often associated with the lytic cycle of
infection

Its D. The lytic cycle of infection describes viruses that infect a cell, make progeny viruses and lyse the cell to release the progeny. They never become latent.

Herpes viruses like chicken pox and polyoma viruses like JC and BK all become latent sometimes so it is not A. The lysogenic cycle is the one in which viruses become latent so B is wrong. Not producing symptoms and not replicating while in the cell is a simple definition of latency so C is wrong.
