 There are several types of resistors including carbon, ceramic, fixed wirewound, variable wirewound, stationary adjustable wirewound and forms of integrated circuits.  There are several types of resistors including carbon, ceramic, fixed wirewound, variable wirewound, stationary adjustable wirewound and forms of integrated circuits. 
  
-How much a resistor impedes the current flow is called resistance and is measured in ohms. Most resistors have a fixed value as to how much resistance they will display. Wattage, qualities and tolerance values vary according to needs.+How much a resistor impedes the current flow is called **resistance** and is measured in **ohms**.
