Answer:

a.true

Step-by-step explanation:

Inverse Relation means that the two Quantities behaves in opposite manner , so if one increase , the other will decrease

So Since the Resistance is inversely Proportional to its Diameter

Then the smaller the Wire ( smaller the diameter ) , then greater the Resistance.

So the Correct Answer is True
