Final answer:

Jack is experiencing lowered inhibitions, Tom impaired judgement, Mary slowed reactions, and Mike poor coordination, all of which are effects of alcohol consumption.

Step-by-step explanation:

Alcohol affects our behavior progressively in four areas: inhibitions, judgement, reactions, and coordination. These effects can have both short-term and long-term consequences for the individual's health and behavior.

  • a) Jack, typically shy person, is very talkative with someone he does not know well, he is showing signs of lowered inhibitions.
  • b) Tom is out to dinner with business associates and is very loud and making jokes about his co-workers, he is showing signs of impaired judgement.
  • c) Mary is talking slow and her speech is slurred, she is showing signs of slowed reactions.
  • d) Mike gets up to play the jukebox, stumbles and trips on a chair, he is showing signs of poor coordination

These behaviors are indicative of the effects of alcohol consumption, which can escalate from social disinhibition to impaired motor control and decision-making, followed by more severe physical effects such as ataxia and potential long-term health consequences including damage to the excretory system and increased risk of various diseases.
