Answer to Question 1

Answer: b.

Answer to Question 2

People who don't drink obviously won't develop alcoholism, and culture can influence that decision. Some cultures prohibit or actively discourage alcohol consumption. Many Muslims, for example, believe that drinking alcohol is sinful. Other religions encourage the use of small amounts of alcohol in religious ceremoniessuch as Jewish people drinking wine at Passover Sederswhile also showing disdain for those who drink to the point of intoxication. This type of cultural constraint can decrease rates of alcohol use disorder. In one large epidemiological study, for example, Jews had significantly lower rates of alcoholism than Catholics and Protestants.
