True
Explanation:
ADOLESCENTS ARE MORE SENSITIVE THAN ADULTS TO ALCOHOL'S MEMORY-IMPAIRING EFFECTS. Among its many effects on the brain and brain function—such as impairing balance, motor coordination, and decisionmaking—alcohol interferes with the drinker's ability to form memories (i.e., it is an amnestic agent). Drinking alcohol during the teenage years can cause permanent brain damage. Damage to the brain could be responsible for memory problems, inability to learn, problems with verbal skills, alcohol dependence and depression. › Alcohol can affect a teenager's social development if they start drinking at an early age. Multiple studies have found a link between excessive alcohol use and damaged brain function, resulting in such conditions as dementia, deficits in learning and memory, mental disorders, and other cognitive damage. Without intervention, the brain can be permanently impaired by chronic alcohol use.
