Answer 2

Doctors use a special thermometer called the clinical thermometer for measuring the temperature of the patient's body. This thermometer has the markings from 35∘ C to 42 ∘ C. It has a slight bend or kink in the stem above the bulb. This kink is called the constriction. This constriction prevents the mercury from falling back all by itself. The temperature of a healthy person is 37° C. This temperature is marked by a red arrow.
