How does digital thermometer work without mercury?
It is a simple device. A variable electronic resister, called a thermistor, is used and is on the end of the cord. The resister varies it's resistance value depending on temperature. The probe must be placed in the area (outside) where you want the temperature. There is a second one in the unit itself and will show the inside temperature.

What are the first 3 coloured strips on a resister for?

How does a resister pack work?
resister is nothing but a 'clay' which will reduce the flow of current. There by limiting the volt.
What is the function of a resister in an electric circuit?
A variable resistor usually has three terminals, one of which is connected to the 'wiper' by which means its resistance is measured. By using all three terminals, we can control the potential difference in a circuit. When used in this way, we call the variable resistor a 'potentiometer'. By using two of the three terminals, one of which must be connected to the variable wiper, we can control the current passing through circuit. When used in this way, we call the variable resistor a 'rheostat'.
What is leakage resistance?
leakage resistance of a resister is type of fault which occurs at a specific voltage across the resister which are undertesting.
