​Erick drinks about seven or eight drinks a day. Besides the risk of accidents, Erick's greatest INCREASED risk is that of

A) ​heart disease.
B) ​oral cancer.
C) ​lung cancer.
D) ​liver cirrhosis.

Drinking seven or eight drinks a day puts Erick at a high risk for developing liver cirrhosis. Overconsumption of alcohol can cause damage to the liver, leading to the development of scar tissue (cirrhosis). This can ultimately affect liver function, leading to further health complications. While heart disease, oral cancer, and lung cancer are also associated with alcohol consumption, liver cirrhosis is the greatest increased risk in this scenario.
