Maurice and julie are teen cousins growing up in the same town. research on gender differences would lead one to predict that maurice is vulnerable to developing an eating disorder and vulnerable to developing alcohol use disorder than his cousin julie is.

Less, more

Explanation:

Historically if it has been that men are more vulnerable to alcohol than women. But these days this gap is closed gradually. According to research, it has been that over the last ten years alcohol use disorder has been increased in women about to 85% and in men, it increased only 36%. The increased level of consuming alcohol in women shows that women are excepted health consequences related to alcohol as compared to men. Drinking is strongly associated with health-related issues specially in the female the health risk is more concerned than men. Women lead to the consequences in the form of liver damage, injury, cirrhosis, etc.
