Alcohol affects the cerebellum, which is the region of the hindbrain responsible for coordinating muscular activities and maintaining body balance and equilibrium. When its normal functioning is impaired by alcohol, muscular coordination is disrupted, leaving the individual unable to maintain proper posture and walk steadily in a straight line.
