Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
Gas flows into the lungs because pressure at the airway opening (Pawo) is positive and alveolar pressure (Palv) is initially zero or less positive.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The use of PEEP and control of membrane permeability accompany the management of shunt.

Once thought to have neurofibromatosis, Joseph Merrick (also known as "the elephant man") is now, in retrospect, thought by clinical experts to have had Proteus syndrome. This endocrine disease causes continued and abnormal growth of the bones, muscles, skin, and so on and can become completely debilitating with severe deformities occurring anywhere on the body.

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).
