Answer:
ANSWER
Similarities:
Bulbs contain mercury.
Glass tubes are long, narrow and uniform.
Differences:
The clinical thermometer is used to measure body temperature, however, laboratory thermometer is not used for the purpose of measuring body temperature.
The temperature range of clinical thermometers is 35°C to 42°C and that of laboratory thermometers is -10°C to 110°C.
The least count of both the thermometers is different.
The clinical thermometer is can be tilted while reading the temperature values whereas laboratory thermometer need to be kept upright.
