Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
English The three terms given are names of scientific devices: Ammeter is an instrument used to measure electric current . Anemometer is an instrument used to measure wind speed/velocity . Taseometer is an instrument used to measure minor changes in the distance between two points, or strain/deformation . Since all three are instruments designed for quantifying a physical property, the most appropriate collective description is that "These are instruments used for measurement". They are not units of measurement (like Amperes or meters).
