When alcohol enters the system and makes its way down to the liver, it is cycled through the body while the liver slowly degrades the alcohol and releases it from our system.

True
False
Only certain types of alcohol
Depends on the individual's liver health

The correct answer is: True

When alcohol enters the system, it is absorbed into the bloodstream and travels to the liver for processing. The liver will metabolize the alcohol at a steady rate, and it cannot be increased by any means, including drinking water, eating, or exercising. Close to 90-98% of alcohol is broken down by the liver, with the remaining 2-10% being expelled through sweat, urine, and your breath. Therefore, both options C and D are incorrect as all types of alcohol are cycled through the body and the liver does not rely on an individual's liver health to process alcohol. The correct answer is A as it accurately describes the process of how alcohol is eliminated from the body.
