Well, understanding how rocks are changed by heat, pressure, and chemical solutions can help us in understanding the variety of metamorphic rocks which we actually observe on the Earth's surface.
Noscapine is a benzylisoquinoline alkaloid produced in opium poppy (Papaver somniferum) and other members of the Papaveraceae. It has been used as a cough suppressant and more recently was shown to possess anticancer activity.
It is composed of roughly 12% morphine (a narcotic prohibited in-competition), codeine, and a number of other non-narcotic alkyloids. The seed pod that contains opium also happens to contain the seeds (poppy seeds).While the seeds donât contain morphine, during harvesting the seeds can become coated by, or absorb some of the opium extract.owever, it is known that morphine and codeine can sometimes be detected in the urine up to 48 hours after ingestion of poppy seed from some pastries such as bagels, muffins, and cakes (Reference 1 is a very interesting FREE article on this topic).
