For NEET 2026 Biology preparation, students must carefully note the important updates in the Structural Organisation in Animals and Plants unit. The syllabus clearly mentions insect (frog), which means candidates are expected to study both cockroach and frog in detail from NCERT, including their morphology, anatomy and organ systems. In addition, the syllabus also specifies plant families such as Malvaceae, Cruciferae, Leguminosae, Compositae and Graminae. Although these families are not explained in NCERT textbooks, students must still prepare them separately, as questions can be asked directly from these topics in NEET. Ignoring these areas may lead to unnecessary loss of marks, so they should be included in revision and practice along with NCERT-based study.
