A 60-year-old woman has been recently diagnosed with multiple sclerosis, a disease in which the oligodendrocytes of the client's
central nervous system (CNS) are progressively destroyed. Which physiologic process within the neurologic system is most likely to be affected by this disease process?A. Oxygen metabolism.B. Neurotransmitter synthesis. C. Nerve conduction.
D. Production of cerebrospinal fluid.
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.
Most people start to face new issues at the ages of 11-13 some may gain this at older ages, but it typically starts around that time, some causes of this are: Puberty;School; Problems at home; etc.
