Answer 1

The correct answer is 98.4°F and 37°C.

Key Points

The normal temperature of the human body is 37 °C or 98.4°F.
A temperature above 100.4 °F(38°C) most often means you have a fever.
Normal body temperature is also called the normal or core body temperature, which is based on Homeostasis.
Homeostasis is a phenomenon in which the body regulates its functions to keep internal conditions as stable as possible.
The normal human body temperature border is typically stated as 36.5–37 °C (97.7–98.6 °F).
Human body temperature depends on gender, age, time of day, exertion level, health status
- Also in what part of the body the measurement is taken at.
Body temperature is kept in the normal range by thermoregulation, in which adaptation of temperature is triggered by the central nervous system.

Important Points

Conversion of temperature from one unit to another
- The temperature T in degrees Fahrenheit (°F) is equal to the temperature T in degrees Celsius (°C) times 9/5 plus 32:
- T(°F) = T(°C) × 9/5 + 32 or
- T(°F) = T(°C) × 1.8 + 32
Common conversions from Celsius to Fahrenheit
- 25°C = 77°F
- 30°C = 86°F
- 33°C = 91.4°F
- 35°C = 95°F
