Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease that causes small blood vessel disease that impairs tissue perfusion. It also causes hemoglobin to have greater affinity for oxygen, so it fails to release oxygen to tissues.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
Serous drainage has the appearance of clear, watery plasma. Purulent drainage has the appearance of thick, yellow, green, tan, or brown drainage. Sanguineous drainage is bright red and indicates active bleeding. Serosanguineous drainage is pale, red, and watery and is a mixture of serous and sanguineous drainage.

Hippocrates noted that blood separates into four differently colored liquids when removed from the body and examined: a pure red liquid mixed with white liquid material with a yellow-colored froth at the top and a black substance that settles underneath; he named these the four humors (for blood, phlegm, yellow bile, and black bile).

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).
