Read the paragraph.
For years. Tyrell had to cancel many of his outings when he kept getting sick. His health finally
improved when his science teacher helped him figure out that reusing the same kitchen
sponge for too long was causing him to get sick. As a result of his science teacher's help, Tyrell
became fascinated with pathology. He is now working on becoming a research scientist.
What does the word pathology, mean in the paragraph?
practice for later study
study of disease
study of the body
laboratory study

B. study of disease

Explanation:

The paragraph talks about Tyrell's illness and his curiosity about the causes of this sickness. It also says that as a result of these discoveries, he became interested in "pathology". Based on the context, we would think that "pathology" should have something to do with disease or sicknesses and their root causes.

Look at the answer choices: we can definitely eliminate A and D because they don't pertain to disease at all. Now compare B and C. Well, B explicitly says "study of disease", which makes it the best candidate; "study of the body" is too vague, and it could talk about simply the workings of the body systems, rather than diseases.

The answer is B.
