Clinical Thermometer
Clinical thermometer is used for measuring the temperature of human. It is marked in degree Centigrade or degree Fahrenheit.
The temperature of a healthy human body is approximately 98.6°F. To measure the temperature a person has to hold the tip of the thermometer either under the armpit or in the mouth under his tongue for a minute. Then we observe the number against the point at which the mercury column stop rising further indicates the body temperature of the person.
