Hint: Temperature refers to the hotness or coldness of a body. In physics, Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in an object. When temperature increases, the motion of these particles also increases. In other words, temperature determines the internal energy within a given system.
Temperature is also known as heat energy. There are three main scales commonly used in the world today to measure temperature: the Fahrenheit ( \[{F^0}\] ) scale, the Celsius ( \[{C^0}\] ) scale, and the Kelvin ( \[K\] ) scale.

Complete step-by-step answer:
Generally, temperature is measured in degrees Celsius ( \[{C^0}\] ). The Celsius scale is also called the centigrade scale since it's divided into \[100\] degrees.
In a given table, temperature is in degrees Celsius ( \[{C^0}\] ).
In a given table, Srinagar city had the temperature value \[1.3\] which is the lowest value compared to other values. Similarly in a given table, Thiruvananthapuram city had the temperature value \[21.6\] which is the highest value compared to other values.
Hence, Srinagar and Thiruvananthapuram cities had the lowest and highest temperatures at \[3\] am respectively.
 \[ \Rightarrow \] The Option (C) is correct.
So, the correct answer is “Option C”.

Note: Note that to convert temperature \[T\] from Celsius to Fahrenheit, we use the equation:
  \[T\] in \[{F^0} = \dfrac{9}{5}\left( {T\;in\;{C^0}} \right) + 32\] .
Similarly, to convert temperature \[T\] from Celsius to kelvin, we use the equation:
 \[T\] in \[K = \left( {T\;in\;{C^0}} \right) + 273.15\] .
Temperature is measured with a thermometer or a calorimeter. A pyrometer used to measure very high temperatures of objects. A cryometer is a thermometer used to measure very low temperatures of objects.
