    This question is incomplete because an option is missing; here is the complete question

    When a person develops tolerance for alcohol, he or she will:

    A. Be less harmed physically by the same doses

    B. Need larger doses to feel the same level of intoxication

    C. Take longer to reach a bac of 0.08%

    D. Act intoxicated even when he or she hasn't been drinking

    From these options the correct answer is B. Need larger doses to feel the same level of intoxication

    Explanation:

    The use and abuse of substances such as alcohol or drugs lead to a phenomenon known as tolerance that occurs as larger doses are needed to have the effects the individual expects. This means, the body is less sensitive to alcohol, and as a response alcohol addicts increase their intake of alcohol over time. Moreover, this phenomenon does not reduce the negative effects of alcohol in the body, but only increases the dose required for intoxication. Thus, when a person develops tolerance for alcohol, he or she will "need larger doses to feel the same level of intoxication".
