Answer to Question 1

A
Alveolar hypoplasia is the major anatomic pathology associated with new BPD.

Answer to Question 2

C
Patients with emphysema have weakened distal airways with permanent enlargement and destruction of the airspaces distal to the terminal bronchioles. This results in hyperinflation, destruction of the alveolar-capillary membrane, and decreased surface area available for gas exchange.

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).
