Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Concept

In a passage-based 'incorrect' question, the passage itself defines the evidence set.

List every stated factor and compare each choice with that list; the choice absent from the list is the required response.

Application

The passage identifies the following relevant links:

  • Attack by certain identified viruses corresponds to the stated attack by one of the identified viruses.

  • Long-term alcohol abuse is explicitly named as a causative factor.

  • Heredity corresponds to the statement that the condition can run in families.

  • Overeating is not included among the causative factors stated in the passage.

Cross-check

A complete re-scan finds viruses, parasite infection, long-term alcohol abuse, blood pressure, childbirth, and familial occurrence; overeating does not appear in that evidence set.

Result

Therefore, the incorrect statement about the causative factors, according to the passage, is 'Overeating'.
