You're welcome! Don't hesitate to ask if you need help in the future.

1. The correct answer is A. When a person is intoxicated, they tend to lose more water from their body than usual. This is because alcohol is a diuretic, meaning it increases urine production. As a result, it can lead to dehydration and put strain on the excretory system.

To understand this, one can start by knowing that alcohol is a diuretic and understanding what a diuretic does. A diuretic increases urine production and as a result, it leads to increased loss of water from the body. Therefore, when someone consumes alcohol, it causes the kidneys to produce more urine, leading to dehydration.

2. The correct answer is A. When you wake up smelling like liquor but don't remember why, it is most likely that you experienced a blackout. A blackout is a period of time during which a person cannot recall events that occurred, even though they were conscious and active at the time.

To understand this, one can start by knowing what a blackout is. A blackout is a temporary form of amnesia that can occur when a person drinks excessive amounts of alcohol. During a blackout, the person is still awake and functioning, but their brain is unable to form new memories. Therefore, they have no recollection of the events that took place during that time period.

It's important to note that blood alcohol concentration (BAC) is a measure of how much alcohol is present in a person's bloodstream, and it is not related to memory loss or blackouts. Hangovers are the unpleasant physical and psychological effects that can occur after excessive alcohol consumption. Intoxication refers to the state of being under the influence of alcohol or other drugs.
