LAB THERMOMETER DO NOT HAVE KINK . SO IF WE USE IT TO MEASURE OUR BODY TEMPERATURE WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO MEASURE AS THE MERCURY WOULD FALL AS KINK DOES A FUNCTION IN NOT ALLOWING THE MERCURY TO FALL SO IF THE KINK IS NOT THERE MERCURY WOULD FALL AND WE WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO MEASURE ACCURATE TEMPERATURE.
