Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

D
Alcohol dependence is chronic use of alcohol that produces physical dependence, for which a withdrawal syndrome occurs if alcohol is discontinued abruptly.
Chronic consumption of alcohol produces tolerance. The amount of alcohol consumed determines the extent of abuse, not the difference between dependence and abuse.
The presence of craving has to do with psychological abuse.
Consumption of alcohol in excess involves both alcohol dependence and alcohol abuse.
