Vedclass · Answer

(D) Statement $S$ is false because mature seeds of opium (poppy seeds) are not used to prevent stomach cramps; rather,opium derivatives like morphine are used as analgesics. Statement $R$ is false because anticancer drugs (chemotherapy) are generally non-specific,meaning they target rapidly dividing cells,which can include both cancerous and healthy cells,but they are not 'non-specific to a particular tumor' in the sense that they are designed to treat specific types of cancer. However,in the context of standard biology curriculum,anticancer drugs are often described as having side effects because they affect healthy cells,but the statement as phrased is scientifically inaccurate or misleading. Both statements are considered false in the context of standard medical biology.
