Plastic or paper thermometers, often referred to as disposable thermometers, typically use a heat-sensitive material that changes color in response to body temperature. When placed under the tongue, armpit, or rectum, the thermometer absorbs heat, causing a chemical reaction that alters the color of the material. The resulting color change corresponds to specific temperature readings marked on the thermometer, allowing for a quick and easy assessment of body temperature. These thermometers provide a convenient and hygienic option for measuring temperature without the use of Mercury or electronic components.
