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

Igoryamba

Answer:

Option B.

It is because the ocean near Portland moderates the temperature.

Explanation:

  • The areas that are near to ocean have the moderate temperatures even in the hot seasons.
  • Portland has the pacific ocean near to it, so the ocean current regulates the temperature there. But Minneapolis lacks ocean near it, so the summer is more hotter in Minneapolis.
  • Ocean is capable of counteracting the rough distribution of radiation due to solar that reaches the Earth's surface.
