The answer is The conductance of a conductor is inversely proportional to the cross-sectional area of the conductor. Conductance is directly related to the ease offered by any material to the passage of electric current. Conductance is the opposite of resistance. The higher the conductance, the lower the resistance and vice versa, the greater the resistance, the less conductance, so both are inversely proportional
