Organic molecules derived from vitamins that act as helpers are called
AysviL [449]
Coenzymes

Coenzymes are small organic molecules that, themselves, do not function as catalysts (i.e. enzymes) but aid the latter in carrying out their functions. Enzymes are biological catalysts, which means that they allow reactions to occur at lower activation energies. In a way, enzymes help to "speed up" chemical reactions. 

Coenzymes are mostly derived from vitamins. Examples include TPP from Vitamin B1 (thiamine), FAD from Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin), and NAD+ from Niacin.

The correct answers are - In this example, the buzzer begins as the neutral stimulus and eventually becomes the conditioned stimulus. The buzzer initially is a neutral stimulus because it have no role to play in the blinking response. Eventually though through learned association the buzzer becomes a conditioned stimulus because you now associate it with a puff of air to the eye which in turn causes you to blink.
