Question

Identify a situation in which you would want to have a high resistance and a situation in which youwould want to have a low resistance

Answer 1

When you're being held hostage, you're going to want to have low resistance. Sure, it's not going to guarantee you'll live, however, it'll surely buy you time for support, think for a plan, and sadly delay your demise. High Resistance during workouts for better muscle. In contrast though, do you mean electrical resistance? That would be a different answer.
