Answer to Question 1

PA upright

Rationale: Air-fluid levels will be best demonstrated with upright positioning or horizontal beam use during decubitus positions. Supine imaging will not allow a fluid line to develop. Lateral chest imaging isn't the most ideal to isolate fluid in a single lung because of right and left lung superimposition.

Answer to Question 2

involuntary motion

Rationale: Involuntary motion is motion a patient cannot control, bowel peristalsis and heart motion are examples.

There can actually be a 25-hour time difference between certain locations in the world. The International Date Line passes between the islands of Samoa and American Samoa. It is not a straight line, but "zig-zags" around various island chains. Therefore, Samoa and nearby islands have one date, while American Samoa and nearby islands are one day behind. Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.

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).
