a
b
c
d

Explanation:

• Option A: BAC (blood alcohol content) measures the concentration of alcohol in the blood, not the number of beverages consumed (as factors like body weight, metabolism, and time affect BAC, so it can't directly determine beverage count).
• Option B: BAC does vary between individuals due to differences in body weight, metabolism, gender, etc., so this is accurate.
• Option C: BAC is commonly used to determine the level of intoxication, so this is accurate.
• Option D: By definition, BAC is the concentration of alcohol in a person’s blood, so this is accurate.

Answer:

A. BAC is used to determine number of beverages consumed.
