Answer:

D.Fat

Step-by-step explanation:

Because ethanol is not fat-soluble, a very small percentage of alcohol ingested is retained in the body's fat tissue, and fat is inefficient in decreasing the body's rate of absorption of alcohol. Therefore, tissue and blood concentrations are higher in women as they have more subcutaneous (high fat) tissue and lower blood volume than men. Women may also have lower levels of dehydrogenases (enzymes that metabolize ethanol).
