The correct representation of the alkaloids obtained from opium is
1 Morphine $>$ Codeine $>$ Pethidine
2 Morphine $<$ Codeine $<$ Pethidine
3 Morphine $>$ Codeine $>$ Pethidine
4 Morphine $<$ Codeine $<$ Nicotine
Explanation:
A The correct representation of the alkaloids from opium is Morphine $>$ Codeine $>$ pethidine. Morphine is an opioid medicine prescribed for severe pain when other pain-relief medicines are not effective or cannot be used. Codeine is an opiate and prodrug of morphine mainly used to treat pain, coughing and diarrhea. Pethidine is an opioid pain relief medicine with aqueous solution of $5 \% \mathrm{w} / \mathrm{v}$ pethidine hydrochloride.

Which is the particular type of drug that is obtained from the plant whose one flowering branch is shown below:-
1 Hallucinogen
2 Depressant
3 Stimulant
4 Pain-killer
Explanation:
A The given figure is the flowering branch of Datura stramonium. Hallucinogens are chemical substances that causes psychological effects. Datura is a genus of poisonous vespertine flowering plants belonging to the family Solanaceae. All Datura plants contain tropane alkaloids such as scopolamine, hyoscyamine, and atropine, primarily in their seeds and flowers. Because of the presence of these substances, Datura has been used as a poison or hallucinogen.

Identify the molecules (a) and (b) shown below and select the right option giving their source and use
2 : Molecule - (1) Morphine; Source - Papaver somniferum; Use - Sedative and pain killer
3 : Molecule - (1) Cocaine; Source - Erythroxylum coca; Use - Accelerates the transport of dopamine
4 : Molecule - (2) Heroin; Source - Cannabis sativa; Use - Depressant and slows down body functions
Explanation:
B The given chemical structures (A) and (B) are of morphine and cannabinoid respectively. - Morphine is the principal opium alkaloid. - Morphine depresses respiratory center it contributes to the fall in blood pressure. - It is strong analgesic and also has sedative and calming effect. - It is very helpful for the patients who have undergone surgery. - Natural cannabinoids are obtained from the inflorescence of hemp plants Cannabis sativa, family Cannabaceae cultivated for its bast fibers or its edible seeds. - They effect the cardiovascular system of the body.
