Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that the thermometer reading is given directly as 0°C, which means the temperature it shows is exactly 0 degrees Celsius.
Recall that the Celsius scale is defined such that 0°C corresponds to the freezing point of water under standard atmospheric conditions.
Recognize that the thermometer reading of 0°C does not require any conversion or adjustment since it is already expressed in Celsius.
Compare the given options to the thermometer reading: since the thermometer shows 0°C, the correct temperature in Celsius is 0°C.
Conclude that the thermometer reading of 0°C corresponds exactly to 0 degrees Celsius, confirming the correct answer.
