Answer:

b. False

Step-by-step explanation:

Alcohol is a toxic intake to the body. It is metabolized by the breakdown of the molecule into acetate units which are further toxic and thus are excreted from the body immediately. Also, acetate is very poor precursor of it to convert into fatty acids which further can be stored.

Carbohydrates can be stored in the form of glycogen but there is no provision in the body to store excess of alcohol.
