Answer:

Option A

Explanation:

The rate and amount of decomposition of alcohol depends on the amount of body fat in an individual. The activity of enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase that breaks down alcohol is affected by concentration of body fat and water.  

The higher the body fat and the lower is the body water and fluid, the higher is the activity of enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase.  

Thus, the higher activity of enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase ensures higher rate of breakdown of alcohol due to which level of alcohol concentration in blood of  an individual reduces.  

Hence, option A is correct

Answer:

The effect of protein disulfide isomerase on insulin signifies that the active conformation of insulin is not the most thermodynamically favored form. The main reason behind this is that the protein disulfide isomerase seems to decline the free energy, that is, it makes them more steady form predominant.  

In the case of insulin, the prevalence of the stable form results in its inactivation. Thus, it signifies that the active form is not thermodynamically stable.
