What can increase an individual's tolerance to alcohol?

A higher body weight
Regular consumption of alcohol
Staying hydrated while drinking
A healthy diet

The correct answer is: Regular consumption of alcohol

Regular consumption of alcohol contributes significantly to an individual's tolerance to alcohol. Tolerance develops as the body becomes accustomed to the repeated presence of alcohol, leading to physiological changes. Over time, the body adapts to metabolize alcohol more efficiently, and individuals may find that they need to consume more alcohol to achieve the same effects they previously experienced at lower quantities. This process involves multiple factors, including enzymatic changes in the liver and alterations in brain chemistry. As a person continues to drink regularly, their systems become more adept at processing alcohol, resulting in a higher tolerance level. Other options, although they may have some impact on overall health or immediate effects of alcohol consumption, do not primarily influence the development of alcohol tolerance in the same way that habitual drinking does.
