Thermistor contain a variable resister. The resister value vary according to the variation on temperature.

Thermister are used to measure temperature. And this type of resistor used to calculate temperature.

Thermister can be of two types depending temperature coefficient, k.
If k is negative thermister is then called NTC or negative temp. Coefficient thermistor. And if, k is positive PTC thermistors.
If k is negative thermister is then called NTC or negative temp. Coefficient thermistor. And if, k is positive PTC thermistors.

Thermistor is special type of resistor.
1. When temperature is increased resistance decrease.
2. When resistance is increase temperature is decrease.
1. When temperature is increased resistance decrease.
2. When resistance is increase temperature is decrease.

The resistance of metal conductor increases with increases of temp because it is contain positive temp coefficient. But it we talk about the semiconductor case. Such as carbon decreases as the temp increase.

Rheostat and potentiometer are almost the same. They are variable resistors whose value can be changed by us and does not depend on external parameters.
Photo conductive cells depend light. Similar to LDRs.
