Answer to Question 1

tilt

Rationale: Tilt and rotation are the two most common positioning errors with skull positioning. Tilt results when the vertex is tilted closer to one shoulder than the other.

Answer to Question 2

total filtration

Rationale: X-ray beams are polyenergetic. In efforts to remove the low energies from the beam that contribute to patient skin dose, filtration is necessary.

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).
