Morphine , heroin , and other opiate drugs are able to mimic endorphins because
they all share a similar shape with endorphins and can thus fit into and bind to
endorphin receptors in the brain . This fit is very specific , something like a lock ...

Although organisms share the same limited number of monomer types , each
organism is unique because of the specific arrangement of monomers into
polymers . An immense variety of polymers can be built from a small set of
monomers .
