Question 2

How is the energy that powers radio galaxies, quasars, and other active galactic nuclei produced?
 
  A) by matter that has been converted to pure energy by interacting with the jets shot out by a central black hole
  B) by nuclear fusion near a central black hole
  C) by matter-antimatter annihilation near a central black hole
  D) by magnetic fields that trap and accelerate charged particles, which then radiate large amounts of energy
  E) by gravity, which converts the potential energy of matter falling toward a central black hole into kinetic energy, which is then converted to thermal energy by collisions among the particles of matter

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).
