d) Most prostate cancers are squamous cell carcinomas.
Explanation:
Most prostate cancers are adenocarcinomas, which is a type of cancer that initiates in mucus-secreting glandular cells. In prostate cancer, semen-secreting cells usually mutate into cancer cells. On the other hand, squamous cell carcinoma is a type of cancer that develops in the squamous cells that form the middle and outer layers of the skin. Chronic bacterial prostatitis is related to recurrent infections of the prostate caused by particular bacterial strains. Benign prostatic hyperplasia is a common condition in old men, which is characterized by overgrowth of the transitional and periurethral area. High-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia is the main precursor lesion to prostate carcinoma, which results from the proliferation of prostate glandular epithelial cells. Finally, most prostate cancers begin in the peripheral zone, i.e., the outer area of the prostate next to the rectum.
