Why are the steam and ice points of water better fixed points for a thermometer than the temperature of a human body?

1 answer

The temperature of the human body changes with each person. The 98.6 F we quote for the "normal" temperature of a person is an average but varies from individual to individual. The steam and ice points of water, however, assuming everything is kept the same, don't vary.
