Answer:

The option that is not a feature of parallel structure is the one that reads as follows: Mixing as many forms of words and word endings as possible.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel structure, also called parallelism, is the repetition of a chosen grammatical structure within a sentence. By making each compared item or idea in your sentence follow the same grammatical pattern, you create a parallel construction. Parallelism adds claritiy to your writing, so when you use parallel structure you increase the readability of your writing.
