The same amount of alcohol will be more diluted in a larger individual because this person has a bigger surface area in his body and his bodily fluids are greater than those of a small person's. With this the liver and pancreas' capacities to release enzymes necessary to breakdown the alcohol is more efficient and comes in bigger dosages. However, it should be noted that regardless of the effects of this in the body, a person should still know how to regulate alcohol intake as this has other known effects in the body (e.g. mentally and physically).

Because the larger individual is more likely to be heavier and bigger in general - with that also carrying more weight. Because alcohol gets diluted in the body, it will become more diluted in someone who is bigger compared to someone who is smaller - simply for these reasons the same amount will have less of an effect in a heavier individual.

Answer:

Make sure you get the right diagnosis and treatment to get rid of it fast. Diabetes, Eye Health,  Heart Disease,  Lung Disease,  Orthopedics,  Pain Management. The condition can also cause wheezing and make it hard to catch your breath. Drug classes that may be used to treat chronic bronchitis/COPD include: Antibiotics to treat worsening coughs, breathlessness, and mucus production caused by infections. Anti-inflammatory drugs, such as corticosteroids (also called steroids), to reduce swelling and mucus output. Taking over-the-counter medications such as aspirin, acetaminophen, or ibuprofen can help relieve symptoms of bronchitis, such as fever, headache, and aches and pains. Aspirin should not be given to children or teenagers, unless advised by a doctor, due to the associated risk of Reye's syndrome. <em>Have a Great Day!</em>
