Solution

The correct option is A Accumulates excess of fats
Excessive alcohol causes fatty liver or steatosis. It describes the buildup of fats in the liver. It occurs when the body creates too much fat or cannot metabolize fat fast enough. As a result, the left over is stored in the liver cells where it accumulates to become fatty liver disease.
Therefore, the correct answer is option A.
