If a large person and a small person drink the same amount whose bac is higher?
It depends how much alcohol enters the bloodstream. A larger person would probably have a lower bac because their fatty tissue would absorb more but depending on the two subjects stomach contents and a few other factors it could be the smaller one.
Women tend to reach higher BAC levels more quickly than men because?
Blood alcohol content(BAC) is affected primarily by the size of the person drinking. So me being 6' 5" can drink more before my BAC increases whereas some one who is 5' 5" BAC would increase more rapidly. So seeing as most women are smaller then men can theoretically drink more wih out their BAC skyrocketing.
What does it mean if your blood alcohol level is 167?
A BAC of .167 is twice as high as a maximum legal .08 and three times as high as a maximum legal level of .05. In short, it is very high.
Why do women tends to reach an higher BAC level than men?
Less of an enzyme that helps metabolize alcohol and a higher proportion of fat, which concentrates alcohol in the bloodstream.
Does a greater tolerance for alcohol lower a persons BAC?
No
