Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Men who can "hold their liquor well" are often able to consume larger quantities of alcohol without showing visible signs of intoxication, which can lead to a higher tolerance and potentially an increased risk for alcoholism. Additionally, if this individual is using alcohol as a coping mechanism to reduce stress, it may also increase their risk for developing alcoholism.
