CDifficulty 2/5

If a man and a woman of the same weight consume the same amount of alcohol, is the driver's sex one of the factors that can influence the blood alcohol level?

Correct answer

Yes, a woman is more likely to have a higher blood alcohol level.

Alcohol is distributed differently through the bodies of men and women. This is why women may show higher blood alcohol levels for the same amount of drink, especially if they are young.
