Final answer:

c)On average, women tend to engage in sexual activity less frequently than men do.

Step-by-step explanation:

The accurate statement among the options provided is c. On average, women tend to engage in sexual activity less frequently than men do.

According to a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention survey, the average thirty-five-year-old woman has had three opposite-sex sexual partners, while the average thirty-five-year-old man has had twice as many. This suggests that, on average, women tend to have fewer sexual partners and engage in sexual activity less frequently than men.
