B Correct answer
Explanation

It is always connected in parallel across the points where the potential difference is measured.

Multiple choice
  1. increase

  2. decrease

  3. remain the same

  4. first increase and then decrease

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

We know V = IR, where V is the voltage, I is the current and R is the resistance. I is inversely proportional to R. So, if the resistance of a conductor is increased, current will decrease.
