Question 7791

Does alcohol affect all people the same way?

  1. No, people under 18 and over 65 are more sensitive.
  2. Yes, when the same amount of alcohol is consumed.
  3. No, thinner people tolerate alcohol better.
Show answer and explanation

Correct answer: No, people under 18 and over 65 are more sensitive.

No. In general, alcohol has a greater effect on people under 18 or over 65. Weight also matters: a thinner person reaches a higher alcohol level than a heavier person after the same drink. That is why the same amount does not affect everyone equally.
