You need to watch what you're looking for!

Regardless of the type of circuit, the third answer "C" (current actually increases as amperage increases, since current is measured in amperes = coulombs per second) is incorrect.

However, there are other types of circuits, like capacitive ones.
In this case, the first statement (Current increases as voltage increases) is ALSO incorrect.

Answer: C. Electric current is measured in amperage so this is the same concept.

I = V / R

I is the current, measured in amperes
V is the potential difference measured in volts
R is the resistance measured in ohms

the answer is C

amperage is another way of saying current

R = E / I = E^2 / P = I^2

this will solve any thing

R= resistance
I= current, amps ---(intensity)
P=power
E=voltage
