Ohograde axonal transpo involves all except

A
Kinesin and Dynein molecular motors
B
Ohograde transpo moves from the cell body toward the axon terminals
C
Nerve Growth Factor, toxins, viruses transpo using kinesin
D
Mitochondria, vesicles containing neurotransmitters using kinesin
High-Yield Explanation
"Ohograde transpo occurs along microtubules that run along the length of the axon and requires two molecular motors, dynein and kinesin. The ohograde transpo moves from the cell body toward the axon terminals."
