Which is true regarding the presence of alcohol within the human body?
A
A small amount of alcohol increases vision acuity.
B
Consuming an equal amount of water will increase the destruction of alcohol and alleviate a hangover.
C
Judgment and decision-making abilities can be adversely affected by even small amounts of alcohol.✓ Correct Answer
Explanation
Alcohol impairs judgment, decision-making and coordination even in small amounts; the FAA study guide notes that as little as one ounce of liquor, one bottle of beer or four ounces of wine can impair flying skills. Alcohol degrades vision rather than improving it, and the body eliminates it at a fixed rate that drinking water, coffee or other remedies do not speed up.
