Intoxication affects the excretory system by causing the drinker to lose more water from the body than usual. This is because alcohol is a diuretic, meaning it increases urine production and can lead to dehydration. Additionally, more blood flows to the skin's surface when someone is intoxicated, which can result in increased sweating. Overall, intoxication can impair the excretory system's ability to maintain proper fluid balance and can lead to dehydration. In addition, sensations and perceptions become less clear when someone is intoxicated, which can impact their ability to recognize and respond to the body's signals for hydration.
