Solution

The correct option is A

Resistance


Explanation for Correct answer:

  • Option A: Resistance
  1. The opposition that a substance provides to the flow of electric current is referred to as resistance.
  2. Hence, option A is correct.

Explanation for Incorrect answer(s):

  • Option B: Conductance
  1. Conductance is a measurement of how easily electrical current (or charge flow) can pass through a material.
  2. Hence, option B is not correct.
  • Option C: Inductance
  1. Inductance is an electrical conductor's tendency to resist changes in the electric current flowing through it.
  2. Hence, option C is not correct.
  • Option D: None of these
  1. Since option A is the correct answer then option D is not possible.
  2. Hence, option D is not correct.

Thus, option A is the correct answer.
