Answer:

c. Nerve conduction

Explanation:

Nerve conduction  test or study is known or described as a medical diagnostic test use to assess nerve damage or dysfunction. The test usually takes 30- 60 minutes depending on the number of muscles to be tested.

It should be understood the oligodendrocytes form the myelin in the central nervous system (CNS). So, as with peripheral myelinated fibers, the covering of axons in the CNS increases the velocity of nerve conduction.

Therefore, in this case, the oxygen metabolism and synthesis of Cerebrospinal fluid and neurotransmitters are not directly affected.

Which is NOT a characteristic of vitamins? *
Flura [38]
You say *which* is NOT a characteristic of vitamins
But you don’t give any options. So I guess I’ll try and answer without them….
Since I don’t know exactly what you mean, I can only help you so much… :/

Vitamins are not drugs or miracle cures.
Taking large doses of vitamins can be harmful because your body only needs vitamins in very tiny amounts.
Eating plenty of fruits, vegetables, wholegrains and cereals will give your body the vitamins it needs, at the right level and in the right balance.
Vitamin supplements can’t replace a healthy diet, but a general multivitamin may help if your diet is inadequate.
People who may need vitamin supplements include pregnant and breastfeeding women, people who consume alcohol in amounts over the recommended level, drug users and the elderly.
