The answer is D, B, E. Graves' disease is caused by excessive secretion of T3 and T4, as a result of diffuse thyroid hyperplasia, caused by thyroid stimulating antibody.

Auto-immune thyroiditis is characterized by lymphoid infiltration and destruction of thyroid acini; Hashimoto's disease is the commonest type.

Iodine deficiency is the commonest cause of non-toxic goitre. Dyshormogenesis (C) results from genetically programmed lack of an essential hormone, i.e., dehalogenase.

Approximately 1 per cent of adenomas (A) are functionally active.
