| 1 | Resistance is the opposition to the flow of current |
| 2 | As resistance increases, current decreases if the power supply is constant |
| 3 | If resistance doubles, current halves if the power supply is constant |
| 4 | As resistance decreases, current increases if the power supply is constant |
| 5 | If resistance halves, current doubles if the power supply is constant |
