Answer:

D. block the formation of long-term potentiation

Step-by-step explanation:

Inactivation of type II calcium calmodulin kinase would be expected to block the formation of long-term potentiation.

They have unique properties and help in the binding of calcium which is rich in calmodulin.

Inactivation will prevent the binding to occur and will result in blocking long term potentiation which is a high nerve impulse strength
