Answer to Question 1

C

Answer to Question 2

One ounce of most alcoholic beverages contains approximately 80 calories and traces of nutrients. Moderate drinkers have increased appetite, which increases food consumed, resulting in weight gain. Heavy drinkers lose their appetites, and that results in nutritional deficiencies. Excess alcohol causes cirrhosis, liver and brain damage, birth defects, and the risk of cancer of the throat or neck.
