| resistance thermometer |
(Also called electrical resistance thermometer) A type of electrical thermometer in which the thermal element is a substance with an electrical resistance that varies with the temperature. Such thermometers can be made with very short time constants and are capable of very accurate measurements. They are commonly used in radiosondes.

| resistance |
A term used to describe bacteria which have mutated or changed so they are not affected by an antibiotic that previously killed them or slowed their growth. As more bacteria become resistant to various antibiotics, there are fewer antibiotics which will have an effect on them, thus newer and stronger antibiotics will need to be developed. Inappropriate use of antibiotics (using them too often, for too short a duration or in insufficient dose) may promote the development of resistance.
