20% alcohol

  

40% alcohol

  

50% alcohol

  

80% alcohol

3: Which beverage would intoxicate a person more: a liquor drink containing 50% alcohol or a drink of 80-proof liquor?

  

A drink that is 50% alcohol

  

A drink that is 80-proof liquor

  

They contain the same amount of alcohol

  

It depends on the brand of alcohol

4: What happens when a person drinks more alcohol per hour than s/he can metabolize?

  

BAC increases and then drops when the person switches to a lower proof drink

  

BAC increases and then mental and physical functioning becomes affected

  

BAC increases until the person vomits

  

BAC increases until the person drinks caffeine to stimulate the brain

5: How does body weight affect alcohol absorption?

  

A person who is larger, taller, and has more lean muscle tissue needs more alcohol to reach intoxication

  

A person who is larger, taller, and has more lean muscle tissue needs less alcohol to reach intoxication

  

Body weight is not a factor regarding the amount of alcohol consumed

  

Body weight is only a factor when comparing men to women

6; Food in the stomach affects alcohol absorption when eaten:

  

Before drinking

  

During drinking

  

After drinking

  

All of the above

  

a & b

  

b & c

7: What are some consequences of mixing alcohol with energy drinks?    

  

Signs of intoxication can be exacerbated

  

Caffeine may delay the normal onset of sleepiness, increasing the amount of time a person would normally stay awake and drink

All of the above

8: What is hepatic encephalopathy?

  

Hepatic encephalopathy is a condition in the brain that causes a range of problems, such as sleep disturbances, mood and personality changes, anxiety, depression, shortened attention span, coma and even death

  

Hepatic encephalopathy is a condition in the liver that results in a build up of toxins and acute internal infection. Symptoms include pain, blood in the urine and stools, fever, chills, and sweating.

  

Hepatic encephalopathy is a condition in the lungs that causes fluid accumulation, making it very difficult to breathe. Shortness of breath, feelings of claustrophobia and fatigue are common symptoms

  

Hepatic encephalopathy is a condition in the stomach that interferes with the production of stomach bile, making it very difficult to digest food. Common symptoms include bloating, gastrointestinal pain, and diarrhea or constipation.

9: How can alcohol affect the lungs?

  

Alcohol can increase the risk of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, making it difficult to breathe. The only treatment is a lifetime reliance on supplemental oxygen

  

Alcohol can slow down the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide, resulting in the build up f lactic acid in the body

  

Alcohol can exacerbate the risk of lung cancer, especially if the drinker also uses tobacco or marijuana

  

Alcohol can exacerbate the risk of acute lung injury following major trauma, such as a serious motor vehicle accident, gunshot, or other event requiring hospitalization, or the spread of bacteria attributed to infection

10: What is cardiomyopathy?

  

Cardiomyopathy is a form of a heart attack. Blood and oxygen do not reach the heart or lungs causing a person to die quickly

  

Cardiomyopathy is a weakened heart that cannot contract effectively to sufficiently nourish the organs. The blood flow shortage causes severe damage to organs and tissue

  

Cardiomyopathy is a damaged heart valve that is unable to regulate blood flow within the body. The blood flow shortage causes severe damage to organs and tissue

  

Cardiomyopathy is a form of cancer that severely weakens and eventually kills the heart.

Answer 1

1). Answer is- Most alcohol commercials are televised during prime time news hours (4pm-7pm), and to males because men drink the most alcohol after work..

Also, according to study American kids see about 3 alcohol ads each day:..

2). Answer- 40% alcohol..

as Proof is defined as twice the alcohol (ethanol) content by volume. For example, a whisky with 50% alcohol is 100-proof whiskey. Anything 120-proof would contain 60% alcohol, and 80-proof means 40% of the liquid is alcohol...

3).answer- A drink that is 50% alcohol...

As from tge above question 80proof and 50% alcohol do not contain same concentration of alcohol.. Rather 50% alcohol is more in concentration as compared to 80proof because 80proof has only 40% concentration of alcohol..

And more is the concentration of alcohol more is the intoxication and damage..

4).answer- BAC increases and then mental and physical functioning becomes affected...

the liver can process one ounce of liquor (or one standard drink) in one hour. If you consume more than this, your system becomes saturated, and the additional alcohol will accumulate in the blood and body tissues until it can be metabolized...

There is Effects of blood alcohol content on thinking, feeling and behavior at different BAC level.. Ranging from 0.02- 0.40..

0.08 Legal definition of intoxication in CA for people 21 years and older.

At or more than 0.40 is coma or death...

5).answer- A person who is larger, taller, and has more lean muscle tissue needs less alcohol to reach intoxication...

As there are Factors That Affect How Alcohol is Absorbed & Metabolized .. For eg:- .

• Biological sex - females have less enzyme to metabolis alcohol than men but this not the only parameter of comparison between two sexes..
• Weight - a lean and thin man reach intoxication level fatser than a man who is heavier than him
• Medication

• . Drinking on an empty stomach vs. eating while you drink

• Health concer

• C vs. "Skillful sipping"...

6).a and b ... Ie food eaten before and during drinking ... This is so because Drinking on an empty stomach irritates your digestive system, and results in more rapid absorption of alcohol. Instead, eat high-protein foods (tofu, cheese, etc.) along with alcohol before and when drinking, and you’ll avoid getting too drunk.... DrinkinG at empty stomach also causes GERD or acidity in long term...

7). Answer- b and c ...

ie Caffeine may delay the normal onset of sleepiness, increasing the amount of time a person would normally stay awake and drink

They reduce the subjectivite feeling of drunkness without actually reducing alcohol-related impairment...

This is so because Energy drinks can mask the effects of alcohol, and make you 'wide awake drunk', as seen in caffeine drinks.. so you may underestimate how you're feeling and endup drinking more alcohol than you normally would... Signs of intoxication would be masked ....

8).answer-

Hepatic encephalopathy is a condition in the liver that results in a build up of toxins and acute internal infection. Symptoms include pain, blood in the urine and stools, fever, chills, and sweating...

Hepatic encephalopathy is caused due to liver cirrhosis seen in patient with Alcoholic liver disease.. This compromises the metabloic function of liver leadting to buid up of toxin and urea in blood causing encephalopathy.. this involves symptoms like flapping tremor, fattor hepaticus etc...

9).ansaer-

Alcohol can exacerbate the risk of lung cancer, especially if the drinker also uses tobacco or marijuana... also alcohol vapourises rapidly so its fumes can go into lungs while drinking acting as a carcinogen in long term situation...

10). Answer- Cardiomyopathy is a weakened heart that cannot contract effectively to sufficiently nourish the organs. The blood flow shortage causes severe damage to organs and tissue..

Alcohol is the most common secondary cause of dilated cardiomyopathy .. Aldehyde the metabolic product of alcohol is cardiotoxic agent...for this alcohol use should be more than 80mg per day for 5-10 years...

Short terms in image-

DCMP- dilated cardiomyopathy

HOCM - Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy

LC- least common

MC - most common .
