Answer to Question 1

C
Cardiac output and recovery time decline. The heart rate slows, blood flow to all organs decreases, and arterial elasticity decreases. Blood pressure increases, and veins dilate.

Answer to Question 2

C
Biological response modifiers are agents that stimulate the body's natural immune system to destroy cancer cells. A serious complication that needs to be monitored closely is an anaphylactic reaction.

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).
