Answer to Question 1

The Babcock model explains the magnetic cycle as repeated tangling and untangling of the solar magnetic field. Because an ionized gas is a very good conductor of electricity, if the gas moves, the embedded electrical currents and resulting magnetic fields must move with it. As a result, differential rotation drags the magnetic field along and wraps it around the Sun. Rinsing and sinking convection currents then twist the field into ropelike tubes. The model predicts that pairs of sunspots should occur where these magnetic tubes burst through the Sun's surface.

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).

Over time, chronic hepatitis B virus and hepatitis C virus infections can progress to advanced liver disease, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma. Unlike other forms, more than 80% of hepatitis C infections become chronic and lead to liver disease. When combined with hepatitis B, hepatitis C now accounts for 75% percent of all cases of liver disease around the world. Liver failure caused by hepatitis C is now leading cause of liver transplants in the United States.
