  • The range for normal (healthy) human body temperature is 36.2° C to 37.2° C, but up to 5 percent of the population have a body temperature that falls outside this range. http://everything2.com/index.pl?node=body%20temperature
  • The equation to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius is C=(5/9)(F-32). Knowing that the average body temp is 98.6 degrees F. - In Celsius it is: 37 degrees.
  • 37 degrees celsius? Info on human body temperature: http://hypertextbook.com/facts/LenaWong.shtml - - - - - -[Here is an excerpt from the website for you.] - - - - - - The normal core body temperature of a healthy, resting adult human being is stated to be at 98.6 degrees fahrenheit or 37.0 degrees celsius. Though the body temperature measured on an individual can vary, a healthy human body can maintain a fairly consistent body temperature that is around the mark of 37.0 degrees celsius. The normal range of human body temperature varies due to an individuals metabolism rate, the higher (faster) it is the higher the normal body temperature or the slower the metabolic rate the lower the normal body temperature. Other factors that might affect the body temperature of an individual may be the time of day or the part of the body in which the temperature is measured at. The body temperature is lower in the morning, due to the rest the body received, and higher at night after a day of muscular activity and after food intake. Body temperature also varies at different parts of the body. Oral temperatures, which are the most convenient type of temperature measurement, is at 37.0 °C. This is the accepted standard temperature for the normal core body temperature. Axillary temperatures are an external measurement taken in the armpit or between two folds of skin on the body. This is the longest and most inaccurate way of measuring body temperature, the normal temperature falls at 97.6 °F or 36.4 °C. Rectal temperatures are an internal measurement taken in the rectum, which fall at 99.6 °F or 37.6 °C. It is the least time consuming and most accurate type of body temperature measurement, being an internal measurement. But it is definitely, by far, not the most comfortable method to measure the body temperature of an individual.
