Solution

The correct option is D A is false but B is true
The thermo-galvanometer is an instrument for measuring small electric currents(only alternating current). It is used on a circuit of any frequency (even up to 120,000~ per sec.) and currents as small as twenty micro-amperes can be readily measured by it.
A thermo-pile is a set of thermo-couples arranged for measuring small quantities of radiant heat.so it can measure the temperature differences of the order of 101 0C
