What do you mean by current sensitivity of a galvanometer

Solution,
Current sensitivity of a galvanometer is the deflection caused by the galvanometer for a unit flow of current through the circuit. Greater the deflection higher is the sensitivity.
It is expressed as:
current sensitivity=θI=NBAkwhere,N is the number of turns in the coilB is the strength of the magnetic field in which the coil is suspendedA is the area of the coilk is the restoring torque per unit twist of the the string
