The Protist Kingdom consists of mostly unicellular organisms that can have characteristics similar to plants, animals or fungi. Characteristics of Protists: mostly unicellular, few multicellular, eukaryotic, can be heterotrophic or autotrophic.Ex: algae, Paramecium, kelp (multicellular). î î î.he Protist Kingdom consists of mostly unicellular organisms that can have characteristics similar to plants, animals or fungi.

The active metabolites of codeine, notably morphine, exert their effects by binding to and activating the Î¼-opioid receptor. This occurs because opioids structurally mimic endogenous endorphins which are naturally found within the body and also work upon the Î¼-opioid receptor set.
Codeine sulfate is an opioid analgesic, related to morphine, but with less potent analgesic properties. Chemically, codeine is Morphinan-6-ol,7,8-didehydro-4,5-epoxy-3-methoxy-17-methyl-(5Î±,6Î±)-, sulfate (2:1) (salt), trihydrate.Its empirical formula is C 18 H 21 NO 3 and its molecular weight is 299.36.etabolism. About 70-80% of administered dose of codeine is metabolized by conjugation with glucuronic acid to codeine-6glucuronide (C6G) and via O-demethylation to morphine (about 5-10%) and N-demethylation to norcodeine (about 10%) respectively.
