  4. Morphine is often given to persons who have undergone surgery as a pain killer

Answer

(4) Morphine is often given to persons who have undergone surgery as a pain killer

Solution

As per NCERT, morphine is a very effective sedative and painkiller, and is very useful in patients who have undergone surgery. (4) is correct.

(1) Incorrect: cocaine is a stimulant drug of abuse that interferes with dopamine transport; it is not given to aid recovery.

(2) Incorrect: nicotine in tobacco stimulates the adrenal gland to release adrenaline and nor-adrenaline, which raise blood pressure and heart rate.

(3) Incorrect: barbiturates are sedatives (depressants); they do not make a person tell the truth.
