Answer to Question 1

The presence of food in the stomach slows the release of
alcohol into the small intestine, which slows absorption.
Therefore, consuming food would slow down the rise in
blood alcohol concentration. Since alcohol is dispersed in
water, and muscle tissue contains more water than adipose
tissue, if two people of similar body weight ingest the same
amount of alcohol, the leaner person will have a lower blood
alcohol concentration. Additionally, body size limits blood
alcohol concentration such that a person with a larger body
will essentially dilute the alcohol in her/his blood more than a
smaller person.

Answer to Question 2

C
