One form of Ohm's law may be written:

Current = (voltage) / (resistance) .

From this statement, you can see that if the resistance
is decreased, the current will increase.

Choice 'D' says this.

The correct answer is option D

The Ohm's Law states that current passing through a conductor is directly proportional to the voltage across the conductor.

Current =voltage/ resistance

The resistance causes hindrance in the path of the current and does not allows it to flow so, we must reduce the resistance to increase the flow of current in the conducting wire.
