A Correct answer
Explanation

A voltmeter must have high resistance to measure potential difference accurately without drawing significant current from the circuit. High resistance ensures minimal disturbance to the circuit being measured. An ammeter, in contrast, has very low resistance to allow current to pass through freely.
