Answer to Question 1

World peace, medical advances, decreased infant mortality, lower speed limits, increased agricultural
productivity, law and order, clean air, and clean water.



Answer to Question 2

ANS:We
are not at zero growth; at the current rate, our population will still double in roughly 100 years. We
use a disproportionately large percentage of the world's resources per capita. We produce a
disproportionately large percentage of the world's waste per capita. Groundwater resources are
decreasing and so is the amount of farmable soil.

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).
