    3. Into your elbow

    2. You can get cavities
    3. Your eyes hurt

    Answer: True

    The bathroom has many germs — washing your hands after using it is very important.

  8. Germs are too big to hide under your fingernails.

    Show answer

    Answer: False

    Germs are tiny and invisible, and they can hide under fingernails — that is why we keep nails clean and trimmed.
