Answer:

The correct answer would be - electronic thermometer was not calibrated correctly

Explanation:

Every electronic equipment or instrument like an electronic thermometer, that measures something needs to be calibrated with a standard measurement or reference value to a new measuring device to establish a relationship.

Liquid thermometer measures based on the liquid's actual physical properties, that are present inside it so, calibration is not required.

Thus, the electronic thermometer was not calibrated correctly.
