Solution

The correct options are
A the two ends of the copper strip
B the copper ends and the iron end at the junction
C the free ends B and C.
D the two ends of the iron strip
Seebeck effect states that a voltage difference is produced whenever two dissimilar metals with a temperature difference are joined. Hence, all the given options are correct.
