We will get the head of the water when we insert the piezometer inflow then we will calculate pressure by Formula*P=PGH*.

So, dirrectly we are not getting pressure. Therefore option C is correct.

A piezometer measures very low pressure in terms of height.

A piezometer is either a device used to measure liquid pressure in a system by measuring the height to which a column of the liquid rises against gravity, or a device which measures the pressure (more precisely, the piezometric head) of groundwater at a specific point.

Will you please explain why these three (A, B, C) are wrong?
