Official Correct Choice:
Option C: resistance is constant
Concept:

Ohm's Law holds true only under strict linear conditions.

Solution:

  • The law states \( V o I \) linearly.


  • The mathematical constant of proportionality that makes this a firm equation (\( V = IR \)) is the Resistance (\(R\)).


  • For the relationship to remain perfectly proportional (a straight line graph), the resistance must remain absolutely constant. (This usually implies keeping physical states like temperature constant).


Why other options are incorrect:

  • Opt A, B, D: These are not the defined physical constraints required to maintain the proportionality of Ohm's Law.
