Solution

The correct option is B Measure body temperature
A clinical thermometer has the range of $35^{\circ} C$ to $42^{\circ} C$ . So it can be used to measure body temperature. However measuring temperature of hot milk or ice cold water is not feasible because these temperatures lie outside the range of thermometer.
