Temperature+Resistor = Thermistor.

Here sensitive means the degree or certainity of o/p for a change in input, temperature change is high so, thermistor is the right answer.

Thermistor has two types,
1) PTC - Positive temperature co-efficient.
2) NTC - Negative temperature co-efficient.
1) PTC - Positive temperature co-efficient.
2) NTC - Negative temperature co-efficient.

When we are change in temprature and no change in resistor so I call thermister is temp sensitive.

Yes, Thermister ans. is correct. It has NTC and PTC depending on the value of 'k'

Kaushal's statement is wrong. Temp changes with resistance means thermistor.

There are two components sensitive to temperature but thermistor is only resistance component between thermistor and photo conductive cell.

Thermistor-thermally sensitive resistor.

Thermistor has two type.
PTC Thermistor "POSISTOR" (for heaters, motor starters, over current protection, over heat sensing & automotive).
NTC thermistor (for inrush current suppression, temperature sensor / compensation & automotive) are offered.
Thermistor is a temperature measuring device.

Thermistor is device designed specially to measure temperature. Hence it is a temperature sensitive component.
