Answer to Question 1

1

Rationale 1: First add up the total volume of intake in mL or 120 + 240 + 240 + 80 + 500 = 1180 mL. Once you have done this, use dimensional analysis to solve the problem. L/shift = 1 L/1000mL x 1180 mL/1 shift. Multiply the numerators (1 x 1180 = 1180). Multiply the denominators (1000 x 1 = 1000). 1180/1000 = 1.18 L.

Answer to Question 2

1.04

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. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).
