Final Answer : C, Explanation :  Antabuse works by disrupting the metabolism of alcohol, causing acetaldehyde buildup in the body which can lead to uncomfortable physical symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and headache. This creates a negative association with alcohol consumption and can deter individuals from drinking. The threat of illness serves as a deterrent to discourage alcohol abuse.
