Answer:D. An ionic compound

Explanation:

An ionic compound by a complete transfer of valence electrons from an atom of a metal to an atom of a non metal so that both can attain a stable duplet or octet structure of noble gases. Potassium has 19 electrons with one valence electron while chlorine has 17 electrons with 7 valence electrons. Potassium will transfer its valence electron to chlorine atom, resulting in potassium having one positive charge and chlorine have one negative charge with both attaining a noble octet structure of noble gases. The compound formed is an ionic compound because it involves a positively charged potassium ion and a negatively charged chloride ion.

Neporo4naja [7]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows:

Functions of astrocytes include all of the following, except

A) performing repairs in damaged neural tissue.

B) guiding neuron development.

C) functioning in action potential transmission.

D) maintaining the blood-brain barrier.

E) creating a three-dimensional framework for the CNS.

Answer:

Functioning in action potential transmission.

Explanation:

Astrocytes may be defined as the glial type star shaped cells present in the central nervous system. They envelope the synapse and can function with millions of neuron at a time.

Astrocytes are involved in the structural support in the brain and can repair the damaged and wear nerves tissue. Their main function is acting as blood brain barrier. The action potential transmission is mainly done by neurons and not by the astrocytes cells.

Thus, the correct answer is option (c).
