Felt earthquakes usually last for ________.
◦ 10 to 60 seconds
◦ 1 to 10 minutes
◦ 1 to 10 seconds
◦ less than 1 second (they are instantaneous)

Question 2

Liquification, where normally solid material behaves more like a fluid during an earthquake, occurs because ________.
◦ friction from the vibrations melt rock and produce magmas
◦ pore spaces between particles in unconsolidated sediments close and displace fluids
◦ cracking in the rocks allows fluids to flow into the area and increase the amount of liquids in the subsurface
◦ rock particles dissolve and mix with the fluids in the subsurface to become a liquid

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).
