Answer 2

Not sure what info you want, whether it's regarding how it's made, or what effect it has on the body, so have chosen the latter! Alcohol is a substance that effects the whole body and can effect it in a short time. When alcohol is taken in, it travels to every part affecting it in some way.
Bloodstream : When alcohol enters the blood, it causes the blood vessels to widen. More blood flows to the skin's surface. However, the drinker's body temperature drops as the increased blood flow to the surface allows body heat to escape. People who drink alcohol in cold weather to get warm actually accomplish the opposite.
Brain: When alcohol reaches the brain, it immediately has a depressant effect. People who drink alcohol may describe the change as relaxing. What they actually experience are physical changes such as loss of sensation and a decrease in sharpness of vision, hearing, and other senses. Alcohol also affects the parts of the brain that control muscle coordination, which is why drinkers may loose their balance or stumble. If drinking continues, alcohol depresses the part of the brain that controls breathing and heart beat. Breathing rates, pulse rates, and blood pressure, which initially increased, now decrease. A drinker may loose consciousness, slip into a coma, or die from alcohol poisoning
Heavy drinkers and many first-time drinkers may suffer blackouts. Other people recall seeing the drinker walking, talking, and in control. The following day however, the drinker has no memory of some events the day before.
Liver : When alcohol enters the liver, the liver breaks down alcohol into energy and the waste products carbon dioxide and water. The carbon dioxide is released from the body in the lungs. The water passes out of the body as breath vapor, perspiration, or urine. When people drink alcohol faster than the liver can break it down, they become intoxicated.
Kidneys : Alcohol prevents the release of body chemicals that regulates how much urine the kidneys make. The kidneys produce more urine than usual, and the drinker looses more water than usual. The drinker becomes very thirsty. In extreme cases, a drinker may loose water needed for the body to function properly.

Answer 3

An alcohol is a chemical molecule containing carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, named according to the number of carbon atoms it contains. Methanol, or methyl alcohol (which is poisonous)contains one carbon atom; ethanol (ethyl alcohol) (the type which we consume) has two carbon atoms; propanol (propyl alcohol) has three, and so on.
Glycerol is another type of alcohol (I won't bore you to death with more chemistry).
The percentage figures you see on alcoholic beverages indicate what percentage of the drink is ethanol.
In Britain the minimum age at which one can consume alcoholic beverages is at present 18.
If you react ethanol with oxygen, (or allow an opened wine bottle to lie for too long), you end up with vinegar.

Answer 4

Alcohol could damage our brain particularly if one is already addicted to it. Alcohol contains high calorie too. If you tried to get intoxicated or consume so much of alcohol then you might have "drops out" by not waking up to go to work or school, squandering money and engaging in other harmful behaviours such as fighting or risky sex. (Beleive me, I've seen so many!)
