1) Service - is a component of android, which runs in the background with out any UI. Service will have default one thread to run in background. Thread - is similar to service, it also runs in the background.
2) Service - is a component of android, which runs in the background with out any UI. By default service will run in Main thread only. Thread - is not android component, but still one can use thread to do some background task. Using thread in place of service is discouraged.
3) Option 2 is right, but one can use Thread in place of Service, no problem will come.
4) Option 1 is right, but it may have UI also some times.
