What is the difference between a ribonucleic acid and a deoxyribonucleic acid?
◦ Deoxyribonucleic acids have a 2'H instead of the 2'OH found in ribonucleic acids.
◦ Deoxyribonucleic acids are used to build nucleic acid strands, while ribonucleic acids are used exclusively in enzymatic reactions.
◦ Ribonucleic acids have a 3'OH, while deoxyribonucleic acids have a 3'H.
◦ Ribonucleic acid include A, T, G, and C, while deoxyribonucleic acids include A, U, G, and C.
◦ Deoxyribonucleic acids have fewer oxygen groups and so are found only in monophosphate form in the cell, while ribonucleic acids have more oxygen groups and are found only in triphosphate forms.

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).
