WHAT DOES RESISTIVE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

resistive

Electrical resistance and conductance

The electrical resistance of an electrical conductor is the opposition to the passage of an electric current through that conductor. The inverse quantity is electrical conductance, the ease with which an electric current passes. Electrical resistance shares some conceptual parallels with the mechanical notion of friction. The SI unit of electrical resistance is the ohm, while electrical conductance is measured in siemens. An object of uniform cross section has a resistance proportional to its resistivity and length and inversely proportional to its cross-sectional area. All materials show some resistance, except for superconductors, which have a resistance of zero. The resistance of an object is defined as the ratio of voltage across it to current through it, while the conductance is the inverse: For a wide variety of materials and conditions, V and I are directly proportional to each other, and therefore R and G are constant. This proportionality is called Ohm's law, and materials that satisfy it are called "Ohmic" materials.
