The correct answer is B. The body loses more water than usual.

Explanation

Alcohol intoxication also is known as drunkenness is a condition that people suffer after ingesting high amounts of alcohol. although this term also applies to drug consumption or consumption of nocive substances. When a person is intoxicated one of the most notorious effects is the increased desire to urinate, an effect that originates in the hypothalamus as the vasopressin hormone is inhibited, which is the hormone that contributes to fluid retention; as a result, the body eliminates more liquid than normal and the individual dehydrates. So, the correct answer is B. The body loses more water than usual.
