The answer is B. The alcohol in the drinks reduced his inhibitions and impulse control most likely explains Jerry’s behavior.
EXPLANATION
An alcoholic drink is a type of ethanol drink. Ethanol typically produced by the fermentation of various sources of sugar like grains, fruits, and root vegetables. Alcohol consumption has seeped into our society deeply and played a significant role in many cultures. Some countries do ban alcoholic drinks, and some culture finds it offensive to take alcoholic drinks although alcoholic drinks are legal in many parts of the world.
Alcohol acts as a depressant when consumed, in which lower doses can cause euphoria or happiness, lower anxiety and improving one’s sociability. Higher doses, however, can cause drunkenness, unconsciousness or even death. It is a well-researched phenomenon that long-term alcohol usage can lead to abuse, cancer, and over-dependence in alcohol, commonly known as alcoholism.
Alcoholic drinks like wine, distilled spirits, beer, and many other alcoholic drinks have ethyl alcohol. Consumption of ethyl alcohol is generally safe and has both short term and long term effects. Short term effects include physiological and psychological effects on the user.
The effects of alcohol can be seen based on the amount of alcohol a person consumes and the concentration or the percentage of alcohol in the drink over a period of time. Typical effects of low blood alcohol concentration (BAC of 0.03-0.12%) are an improvement in mood, possibly causing euphoria, higher self-confidence and sociability, lower anxiety, impaired judgment, and fine muscle coordination.
