96.4°F
B
99.7°F
C
98.6°F
D
97.5°F
AI Explanation
The correct answer is C) 98.6°F. This is the standard normal body temperature for humans. This is considered the typical average oral (mouth) temperature, as determined by medical and scientific consensus. The normal temperature range can vary slightly, typically between 97.5°F to 99.7°F, but 98.6°F is regarded as the average healthy oral temperature. The other options are incorrect because 96.4°F is below the normal range, 99.7°F is at the upper end of the normal range, and 97.5°F, while within the normal range, is on the lower end compared to the established average of 98.6°F.
