Answer:
Explanation:
Alcohol dehydrogenase are a group of enzymes that serve to break down alcohol inside the organism, making it not toxic, without this enzyme, any alcohol consumption would be completely toxic.
In other organism, the alcohol dehydrogenase have a catalyst functions as yeast and some plants, instead of breaking down, they do the opposite reaction getting this way the fermentation state.
In this case, BAL stands for Blood Alcohol Level, the amount of alcohol present in the bloodstream. So, women have a greater level of alcohol there because they have less alcohol dehydrogenase, as a consequence, their body break down less amount of alcohol, maintaining a higher level of it in the blood.
