Question

We cannot conveniently measure our body temperature using a laboratory thermometer mainly because:

• A. it has high temperature range
• B. the liquid used is different
• C. it does not have a kink
• D. it is very long

Answer 1

The correct option is C

it does not have a kink

We cannot conveniently measure our body temperature using a laboratory thermometer mainly because it does not have a kink. The absence of a kink results in falling off of the mercury level as soon as the thermometer is taken out of contact with the body.
