Body fat does not absorb alcohol so the fatter a person is, the greater the concentration of alcohol in the blood, other things being equal.

Has does food effect the absorption of alcohol?
A high fat meal will slow the absorption of alcohol.
Is one of many factors that can determine rate of alcohol absorption?
The level and rate of alcohol intoxication are dependent on the rate of alcohol absorption. Factors affecting absorption include gender, size, amount of body fat versus muscle, medications being used, and whether or not a person has an empty stomach.

Is alcohol absorbed in body fat?
In terms of how your body deals with it, alcohol is basically sugar. It's not absorbed into body fat really, but it is easily converted into body fat.
Does alcohol turn into sugar once it is in the body?
No. Alcohol can only be broken down to CO2 and water. Where alcohol enters the metabolic pathways it can not be synthesized back to carbohydrate or fat. Alcohol can affect blood sugar level in secondary ways.
What factor increase rate of absorption of drug?
If you want just one factor, body weight could be it. Heart rate can also affect absorption rates. Muscle to fat ration can affect absorption. Whether you have recently eaten or drank water can be a factor. Alcohol can also affect absorption rates. Pick one I guess.

What are characteristic that affect alcohol being metabolized?

What tends to speed up the absorption of alcohol fruit punch water or carbonated beverages?
These do not speed up the absorption of alcohol. The typical body processes alcohol at the rate of 1 unit per hour. There is no quick fix for absorption. Although I'm not sure about the effect of fruit punch on alcohol absorption, carbonated beverages DO increase alcohol absorption, I think the previous answer is confusing alcohol absorption with alcohol metabolism. In particular the increased temperature of your body causes the CO2 gas to come out of solution and speeds up alcohol assimilation into the blood stream. Assuming the same amount of alcohol as a non-carbonated beverage, the increased speed of assimilation will increase the rate at which alcohol can go to your body's tissues (with the exception of fat), ALTHOUGH this will not change the rate of your liver's alcohol metabolism.

BAC rise is a function of absorption, which tends to be about the same for everyone if their stomachs are empty. The LEVEL to which it will rise for a given amount of alcohol is a function of body weight and body fat.
