Answer 1

Answer:

Tolerance

Explanation:

Alcohol tolerance: The person needs a large quantity of alcohol to feel intoxicated. However, when the liver is damaged and cannot metabolize the alcohol so well, this tolerance may drop. Damage to the central nervous system may also reduce tolerance levels. His or her brain has become dependent on alcohol to function, and without a drink, withdrawal symptoms occur.
