IPA: /θɜːrˈmoʊdʒənɪsɪs/
KK: /θɜrˈmoʊdʒənɪsɪs/
Definition: The process of producing heat in the body, often through metabolic activities.
Example: During cold weather, the body increases thermogenesis to maintain its temperature.
IPA: /θɜːrˈmoʊdʒənɪk/
KK: /θɜrˈmoʊdʒɛnɪk/
Definition: Relating to the process of producing heat in the body or in a substance.
Example: Certain foods have thermogenic properties that can help boost metabolism.
IPA: /ˈθɜːrməˌɡræm/
KK: /ˈθɜrməˌɡræm/
Definition: A type of record that shows temperature changes, created by a device called a thermograph.
Example: The doctor examined the thermogram to check for any unusual heat patterns in the patient's body.
IPA: /ˈθɜːrməˌɡræf/
KK: /ˈθɜrməˌgræf/
Definition: A device that measures and records temperature changes automatically.
Example: The thermograph showed a steady increase in temperature throughout the day.
IPA: /θɜːrməˈɡræfɪk/
KK: /θɜrməˈgræfɪk/
Definition: Relating to a method of using infrared imaging to detect heat patterns and temperatures.

KK: /θɜrˈmɒɡrəfi/
Definition: A method that uses an infrared camera to detect temperature differences on the skin, helping to identify abnormal tissue or health issues.
Example: The doctor used thermography to check for any unusual heat patterns on the patient's body.
IPA: /θɜːrmoʊˈheɪlaɪn/
KK: /θɜrmoʊˈheɪlaɪn/
Definition: Relating to the combined effects of temperature and saltiness in water, often used in oceanography to describe water movement and properties.

KK: /θɜrˈmoʊləˌbɪlɪti/
Definition: The state or quality of being sensitive to heat, where a substance can change or break down when exposed to high temperatures.
Example: The thermolability of the enzyme means it must be stored at low temperatures to remain active.
IPA: /θərˈmɒmɪtə/
KK: /θərˈmɑːmɪtər/
Definition: A tool used to measure how hot or cold something is, usually with a glass tube that contains a liquid that moves up or down depending on the temperature.
Example: The doctor used a thermometer to check my temperature when I was feeling sick.
