Answer 1

B-Vomiting can cause dehydration

also i got it right on edge.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you have alcohol poisoning then you will experience being sweaty and having a lot of vomiting like you have the flu. If so you need to drink water. do not drink coffee or milk or anything because it will not quench your thirst or give you the nutrients you have thrown up.

Answer 2

The main reason Peter makes the alcohol-poisoned person drink water is that vomiting can cause dehydration.

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the main symptoms of alcohol poisoning is vomiting, which can cause dehydration, leading to a worsening of the person's general condition.

The administration of water, as long as the person is conscious and can drink, prevents dehydration and organic imbalance that may occur.

Other symptoms of alcohol poisoning are hypothermia, altered consciousness and irregular breathing.

With respect to the other alternatives:

• Low body temperature can not cause dehydration.
• Excessive sweating can lead to water loss, but not as fast as vomiting.
• High blood pressure can not cause dehydration​.
