Explanation:

1. For question 14: Antiperspirant deodorants reduce sweat (the food source for odor-causing bacteria), daily bathing removes bacteria and sweat. Cologne/perfume only masks odor, not prevent it, and shaving all body hair is not a necessary or standard prevention method.
2. For question 15: Body odor forms when bacteria break down sweat on the skin, so bacteria are a key factor.
3. For question 16: Even at rest, the body produces sweat and dead skin cells that can harbor bacteria, so regular showers are essential for hygiene.

Answer:

1. a) Wearing deodorant with an antiperspirant, c) Taking daily baths and showers
2. a) True
3. b) False, taking regular showers are central to your personal hygiene
