Piezometer is used to measure moderate pressure and manometer is used to measure high pressure or pressure in pipes and channels.

Piezometer or simple type manometer can not measure high pressure head but U-tube manometer can measure high pressure heads.

Piezometer can measure only low pressure(gauge pressure).
Manometer can measure both low and high pressure.
Manometer can measure both low and high pressure.

I think manometer is used to measure the low pressure and measure of high pressure the pressure gauge.

According to NPTEL, Manometers are used to measure large gauge pressures. So option C is correct.

I think pressure gauge is used for high pressure and manometer is used for small pressure.
