Answer to Question 1

Answer: Miranda defined interrogation as questioning initiated by law enforcement officers. The Court determined that interrogation must reflect a measure of compulsion above and beyond that inherent in custody itself. Thus, any questions that tend to incriminate, such as those that are directed toward an individual about his or her suspected involvement in a crime, are considered interrogation.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: The Fourth Amendment is an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that governs search and seizure. It applies when a search or seizure is being contemplated or takes place. Two important elements must be considered; whether the search is a product of government action, and whether the government action infringes upon the individual's reasonable expectation of privacy.

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).

It is tightly attached to the skin below it, so it compensates for the increased area by wrinkling. This happens to the hands and feet because they have the thickest layer of dead keratin cells.
