Textbook Question
Chapter 24, Problem 1RQ
What are the three origins of drugs?
Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
The three origins of drugs.
Answer to Problem 1RQ
The origin of the drug defines how and where it had been derived. The three drugs can be enumerated as
- Natural origin
- Chemical derivative of natural product
- Synthetic product
Explanation of Solution
Drugs are categories on the basis of their origin i.e. from where they have been derived. The origin of drug can be;
- Natural origin
- Chemical derivative of natural product
- Synthetic product
If the drug originates naturally then it's called natural originated drug, the drugs which has been prepared from the derivate of natural product then they're called Chemical derivative of natural product and if drugs are synthesized within the laboratory using various chemical reactions then they are called synthetically originated drug.
Conclusion:
Therefore, there are three origins of drug namely natural origin, chemical derivative of natural product and synthetic origin.

The slits are extremely narrow. A screen is located L = 2.5 m from the slits. The intensity on the centerline is 0.05 W. Consider a location on the screen x = 1.72 cm from the centerline. a) Draw the phasors, according to the phasor model for the addition of harmonic waves, appropriate for this location. b) From the phasor diagram, calculate the intensity of light at this location.arrow_forwardA Jamin interferometer is a device for measuring or for comparing the indices of refraction of gases. A beam of monochromatic light is split into two parts, each of which is directed along the axis of a separate cylindrical tube before being recombined into a single beam that is viewed through a telescope. Suppose we are given the following, • Length of each tube is L = 0.4 m. • λ= 598 nm. Both tubes are initially evacuated, and constructive interference is observed in the center of the field of view. As air is slowly let into one of the tubes, the central field of view changes dark and back to bright a total of 198 times. (a) What is the index of refraction for air? (b) If the fringes can be counted to ±0.25 fringe, where one fringe is equivalent to one complete cycle of intensity variation at the center of the field of view, to what accuracy can the index of refraction of air be determined by this experiment?arrow_forward
