Question

select the correct answer.
in which stage of alcoholism does the drinker face serious health problems?
a. problem drinking stage
b. dependence stage
c. last stage

Explanation:

In the last stage of alcoholism, the body has been severely damaged by long - term alcohol abuse. Organs like the liver (e.g., cirrhosis), heart (e.g., cardiomyopathy), and nervous system (e.g., neuropathy) are affected, leading to serious health problems. In the problem - drinking stage, the drinker may have social or work - related issues due to drinking but not yet serious health problems. In the dependence stage, there is physical and psychological dependence, but the full - blown serious health problems are more characteristic of the last stage.

Answer:

C. last stage
