Buprenorphine is a partial opioid agonist, which causes it to be less addictive than either heroin or methadone. The âhighâ produced by buprenorphine is less intense, and the side effects are less dangerous.

Learn how the cells in the body work together to sustain life. slide 1 of 4. How an Animal Cell Works All animals -- no matter what their size-- are made up of tiny cells. Each one of these cells can grow, reproduce, respond to changes in the environment, move, and metabolize food for fuel. So how does an animal cell work? Tiny structures inside the cell called organelles work together to carry out all the cell's life functions. Learning the basic parts of the cell and their functions will help you understand how an animal cell works. slide 2 of 4. Three Basic Parts of the Cell The animal cell is made up of three basic parts: the cell membrane, the nucleus and protoplasm. Consider the cell membrane as the gatekeeper. It surrounds the cell contents and separates the cell from other cells and from the external environment.
