D: A thermometer is a device that measures temperature or a temperature gradient. Correct Answer DCBA
The correct answer is option 1) i.e. DCBA.
- D is the first sentence because it introduces the subject 'Thermometer' and explains what it is.
- C further provides us information on its constituents i.e., two important elements: a temperature sensor, and some means of converting this change into a numerical value. So, C continues explaining what a thermometer is.
- A uses the word 'therefore' to indicate why it has become an integral part of our life. The reason for this is mentioned in B. So, B would precede A.
Thus, the correct arrangement is : DCBA.
