Answer to Question 1

The J-curve illustrates graphically the dynamic adjustment of NX to a depreciation when the Marshall-Lerner condition does not hold initially but does hold eventually. If ML does not hold initially, a depreciation will cause NX to fall. Over time, the quantities of exports and imports will adjust causing NX to rise and eventually increase above its initial level. Tracing out the path of NX in this case resembles a J. Hence, the J-curve.

Answer to Question 2

Bisphosphonates were first developed in the nineteenth century. They were first investigated for use in disorders of bone metabolism in the 1960s. They are now used clinically for the treatment of osteoporosis, Paget's disease, bone metastasis, multiple myeloma, and other conditions that feature bone fragility.

For high blood pressure (hypertension), a new class of drug, called a vasopeptidase blocker (inhibitor), has been developed. It decreases blood pressure by simultaneously dilating the peripheral arteries and increasing the body's loss of salt.

Did you know?

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).
