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).

If the Earth were a disk with its surface perpendicular to the rays of sunlight, each point on it would receive the same amount of radiation. <span> However, the Earth is a sphere and aside from the part closest to the sun, where the rays of sunlight are perpendicular to the ground, its surface tilts with respect to the incoming rays of energy with the regions furthest away. Hope this answers the question.</span>
