Solution
In its early stages, dementia is often _______ from normal aging, and (neither dementia nor cognitive ageing) is currently _______, -> 2 Cases.
Case 1: Dementia = viewed different than normal aging + it is curable.
Case 2: Dementia = not viewed different, + incurable.
Note: (it cant be a mix of both since the conjunction is ‘and’)
...though it may be _______ with diet and exercise. -> Use of though -> opposite of previous words -> This = less sense with Case 1, thus Case 1 = eliminated
Summary -> Words = not different ; incurable ; (anything positive here)
Option 1: Distinguishable ≠ not different -> Eliminated
Option 2: Irreversible -> Not related to aging -> Out of scope -> Eliminated
Option 4: Differentiated ≠ not different -> Eliminated
Option 3: All words make sense -> Correct answer!
