Answer : Correct option is (B) "resistance"

Explanation :

Electric current is defined as the electric charge per unit time.

According to Ohm's law, current flowing through a conductor is directly proportional to the potential difference between two points or voltage.

i.e.
V =IR

Where,

V is the voltage

I is the current flowing

R is the resistance


I=(V)/(R)

So, it is clear that current is inversely proportional to the resistance.

Hence, the correct option is (B) "resistance".
