Identify the mechanism through which lithium decreases nerve conduction.
lithium blocks the reuptake of norepinephrine and serotonin back into the neuronal nerve endings.
lithium interferes with nerve conduction, resulting in a decrease in the excitability of nerve tissue.
lithium stimulates norepinephrine and dopamine receptors, which stimulate the release of norepinephrine and dopamine from nerve endings.
none of the above are true.
