Answer to Question 1

A stream with a previously established meandering pattern may become incised into solid bedrock that
is uplifted, or the same stream may be responding to a relative lowering of its base level.



Answer to Question 2

A superposed stream is one whose course was developed earlier, while flowing over a relatively flat
surface, and that maintained its course by downward erosion, as more resistant rock layers were
uplifted into its path.

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).
