Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The interesting thing about RAID 0 is that, in reality, it provides no redundancy, and therefore no fault tolerance, making it a potentially dangerous RAID choice. The advantage of RAID 0 is that it offers the best performance in terms of data access as no overhead is involved for data recovery. Overhead is not involved because error checking is not performed. Also, drives can be accessed in parallel for read and write operations. However, for the multiple drives in a RAID 0 array, should one of the drives fail, the entire array fails. This means consequently that data on all the drives that make up the array becomes unusable should one drive fail. The result of this type of failure is no fault tolerance. Because there is no fault tolerance, when implementing RAID 0 an enterprise must make sure that regular backups are performed so that data can be recovered if the array fails.

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).

Chronic necrotizing aspergillosis has a slowly progressive process that, unlike invasive aspergillosis, does not spread to other organ systems or the blood vessels. It most often affects middle-aged and elderly individuals, spreading to surrounding tissue in the lungs. The disease often does not respond to conventionally successful treatments, and requires individualized therapies in order to keep it from becoming life-threatening.
