Florida Drug and Alcohol Traffic Awareness TSLAE Practice Exam

The greater the amount of alcohol you drink, the faster it is absorbed into the bloodstream. True or False?

1. True

2. False

The correct answer is: True

Alcohol is primarily absorbed into the bloodstream through the walls of the small intestine. However, the rate at which it is absorbed can vary depending on a variety of factors such as the type of alcohol, the concentration of alcohol, and the presence of food in the stomach. While some types of alcohol, such as beer, may take longer to be absorbed, others, such as liquor, can be absorbed more quickly. Additionally, having food in the stomach can also slow down the absorption process. Thus, it is generally true that the greater the amount of alcohol consumed, the faster it will be absorbed into the bloodstream. Therefore, option A is the correct answer. Option B is incorrect because the statement is generally true, even if there are some exceptions and variables at play.
