Some human nerve cells have a long, thin cylindrical cable (the axon) from their inputs to their outputs. Consider an axon of radius -6 4.9 x 10⁰ m and length 0.55 m. The resistivity of the fluid inside the axon is 0.50 2. m. Part A Determine the resistance of the fluid in this axon. Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Choose true or false for each statement regarding the resistance of a wire. While maintaining a constant voltage V, the current I increases when the resistivity p of a wire decreases. O While maintaining a constant voltage V, the current I increases when the cross-sectional area A of a wire expands. The resistivity p is proportional to the resistance R of a wire. Submit Answer Tries 0/2 Choose true or false for each statement regarding resistors in a circuit. O Three identical resistors in series have one third the resistance of each individual one. 8 If you connect two different resistors in parallel in a circuit, then the current that flows through each of them is different. If you connect two different resistors in parallel in a circuit, then the voltage across each of them is different.
