    Explanation
    Physicians with a narcotics license are required to register on June 30 of each year with the Drug Enforcement Agency. This is because the Drug Enforcement Agency is responsible for regulating and enforcing laws related to controlled substances, including narcotics. By registering with the DEA, physicians are ensuring that they are in compliance with the law and are authorized to prescribe and handle narcotics in their medical practice. The registration process helps to track and monitor the distribution and use of narcotics, ensuring their safe and appropriate use for medical purposes.

    Correct Answer
    A. SUBSTANCES THAT HAVE NO ACCEPTED MEDICAL USE AND A HIGH POTENTIAL FOR ABUSE
    Explanation
    Schedule I drugs include substances that have no accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse. These substances are considered to be the most dangerous drugs and are tightly controlled by the government. They are classified as such because they have a high potential for abuse, can lead to severe physical or psychological dependence, and have no accepted medical use in treatment. Examples of Schedule I drugs include heroin, LSD, ecstasy, and marijuana (in some countries). These drugs are illegal to manufacture, possess, or distribute, except for very limited research purposes.
