1 hour 2 hours 30 minutes 45 minutes

Correct Answer:

1 hour

Explanation:

One standard alcoholic drink typically takes about 1 hour for the body to metabolize. During this time, the liver breaks down the alcohol into acetaldehyde and then into acetate, which the body can then process and eliminate. Factors such as body weight, gender, and metabolism can affect this process. Options B, C, and D do not accurately reflect the usual time it takes for the body to metabolize one standard alcoholic drink.
