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

Write the number of each atom in the chemical formulas for all of the possible combinations of positive and negative ions found
adell [148]

A chemical formula is obtained from the number of atoms in a compound.

Chemical compounds are composed of atoms. The number atoms of each element in a compound determines the correct formula of the compound. Before I can write the chemical formula of any compound, I must first determine the number of each atom in the compound.

For instance, phosphorus trichloride contains one atom of phosphorus and three atoms of chlorine hence I would place a 1 in the box for P and 3 in the box for Cl.
