Answer to Question 1

D
Among street users, heroin is the opioid of choice. It is easy to procure and is taken by about 90 of opioid abusers.
Oxycodone, morphine sulfate, and hydromorphone are not the drugs of choice for street users of opioid drugs.

Answer to Question 2

A
The passive immunity of the hepatitis B immune globulin protects the body immediately.
The immune system responds to the antibodies immediately. It does not take several months for a response to develop.
Immune globulin is passive, not active, immunity.
The passive immunity protects the body immediately but persists only as long as the antibodies remain in the body.
