Aampere
Bvolt
Cwatt
Dohm
AI Explanation

The correct answer is D) ohm. The unit of measure for electrical resistance is the ohm (Ω). This is the standard unit for measuring the opposition to the flow of electric current, as defined by Ohm's law. Resistance is a fundamental electrical quantity that describes how much a component or circuit impedes the flow of electric current. The other options are incorrect because: A) Ampere is the unit of electric current, not resistance. B) Volt is the unit of electrical potential or voltage, not resistance. C) Watt is the unit of electrical power, not resistance.
