Answer to Question 1

Metabolic Bone Disease is caused by an improper calcium/phosphorous ratio in the diet. If a reptile does not have UV lighting calcium will not be absorbed or metabolized in the reptile.

Answer to Question 2

Chameleons require wire mesh cages that allow air flow. They require branches to climb on, plants to hide in, and a water fall with moving water, as well as a UV light and a heat source to keep the temperature around 80F.

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).
