Which body system is least affected by alcohol intoxication?
A
Digestive system
B
Integumentary system
C
Nervous system
D
Cardiovascular system
Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the effects of alcohol on different body systems. Alcohol primarily affects the nervous system, leading to impaired motor functions and cognitive abilities.
Consider the digestive system, which processes alcohol. The liver, part of this system, metabolizes alcohol, and excessive consumption can lead to liver damage.
Examine the cardiovascular system, which can be affected by alcohol through increased heart rate and blood pressure, and long-term effects like cardiomyopathy.
Evaluate the integumentary system, which includes the skin, hair, and nails. This system is not directly affected by alcohol intoxication in the short term.
Conclude that the integumentary system is least affected by alcohol intoxication compared to the other systems listed, as it does not play a direct role in processing or responding to alcohol consumption.
