Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
5000-10,000 per cubic millimeter is the normal leukocyte count. 1000-2000 per cubic millimeter is an abnormally low leukocyte count. 4.2-6.2 million per cubic millimeter is the normal erythrocyte count. 1.2-2.2 million per cubic millimeter would indicate anemia.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Erythrocytes (red blood cells) are the most abundant cells of the blood, occupying approximately 48 of the blood.

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).
