Reilly Powell · Answer 1

A. A resistor alters current and a switch turns current on and off

Explanation:

Resistor is the passive component that reduces the flow of current. Switch is the electrical device that turns on or off the current by closing and opening the electrical circuit.

Thus option A. A resistor alters current and a switch turns current on and off is correct.
