Why is it that the potential prosocial benefits of watching television are outweighed by the negative consequences?
 
  a. Because children don't believe that the prosocial behaviors they see on television are real and, thus, they cannot relate to them.
  b. Because prosocial behavior is seen far less frequently than aggressive behaviors.
 c. Because prosocial behaviors are always intricately connected to aggressive behaviors in television depictions, and children cannot distinguish one from the other.
  d. Because prosocial acts in television programs are almost always conducted by older characters, and children cannot connect with those role models.

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors.

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
