Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

The geometrical structure of the universe has positive curvature (closed, as with a sphere), negative curvature (open, as with a saddle shape), or is flat. This depends on whether the density of the universe is above, below, or exactly at critical. If above, the universe will eventually collapse back on itself. If below, the universe will expand forever. If critical, the universe will brake to an exact halt after an infinite amount of 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).

Stevens-Johnson syndrome and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis syndrome are life-threatening reactions that can result in death. Complications include permanent blindness, dry-eye syndrome, lung damage, photophobia, asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, permanent loss of nail beds, scarring of mucous membranes, arthritis, and chronic fatigue syndrome. Many patients' pores scar shut, causing them to retain heat.
