Autoimmune diseases are not caused by bacterial infections; they result from immune system dysfunction.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 7: Human Health and Disease Common Diseases - Bacterial - Typhoid Pneumonia
Tuberculosis (TB) is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis and primarily affects the lungs.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 7: Human Health and Disease Common Diseases - Bacterial - Typhoid Pneumonia
Pneumonia affects the alveoli in the lungs, causing inflammation and fluid accumulation, leading to respiratory issues.

Typhoid is caused by Salmonella typhi and spreads through contaminated food and water, not vectors like mosquitoes.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 7: Human Health and Disease Common Diseases - Bacterial - Typhoid Pneumonia
Dengue is a vector-borne disease transmitted by the Aedes mosquito, not through contaminated water.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 7: Human Health and Disease Common Diseases - Bacterial - Typhoid Pneumonia
Hepatitis B is transmitted through contaminated blood, so using disposable syringes helps prevent its spread.
Ref: NCERT Class 12 Biology Chapter 7: Human Health and Disease Common Diseases - Bacterial - Typhoid Pneumonia
Humans possess a closed circulatory system, in which blood always remains confined within blood vessels. The human heart is four-chambered and exhibits double circulation.

Pick B: Ventricular depolarization. Thinking about Cardiac Cycle and Regulation in a practical way — what the structure does, or what the process achieves — leads you here. Clinically and academically, the same logic shows up again and again: Ventricular depolarization is the option that correctly names the structure, process, or principle asked for in Cardiac Cycle and Regulation. Hence Ventricular depolarization is correct. Treat this as a building block for the rest of Cardiac Cycle and Regulation; neighbouring topics often reuse the same principle. Keep a one-line summary card for this idea and revisit it before the paper; short, repeated review beats long cramming sessions.
Ref: Animal physiology is Unit 7 of the CSIR NET Life Science Syllabus, covering core body systems. It accounts for roughly 10% of the total marks in Sections B and C.
Correct option is B, Hypothyroidism in adults. In Endocrinology, the accurate description is Hypothyroidism in adults, and that is what you should commit to memory. Keep the definition tight and the role clear — Hypothyroidism in adults is the option that correctly names the structure, process, or principle asked for in Endocrinology. Then Hypothyroidism in adults is the answer you can defend. Check yourself by covering the options and writing the answer first, then matching the letter — that builds confidence. If the wording feels dense, translate it into everyday language first, then map that plain sentence back onto Hypothyroidism in adults.
