Passive reabsorption in late PCT mainly involves:

Go with B — Cl⁻, urea and water. Within Excretory System, that statement lines up with the standard definition and the usual exam wording you’ll see. In plain terms, the functional job described in the stem is exactly what Cl⁻, urea and water does in Excretory System. Holding that picture in mind makes Cl⁻, urea and water feel natural rather than something you only memorise. Link the term to a real body example (organ, tissue, or ion flow) so the idea stays concrete under exam pressure. A short mental diagram helps — start from stimulus or structure, follow the pathway, and stop at the functional result described by Cl⁻, urea and water.

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.

Vasopressin mediates water reabsorption in kidney by acting on:

Pick B: V2 receptors via cAMP. Thinking about Endocrinology 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: V2 receptors via cAMP is the option that correctly names the structure, process, or principle asked for in Endocrinology. Hence V2 receptors via cAMP is correct. Treat this as a building block for the rest of Endocrinology; 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.
