For 10 points, name this circuit element whose strength is measured in ohms, which opposes the flow of current.
One of these devices is paired with a voltage source to simplify a circuit in Thevenin's theorem. These devices are used as ammeter shunts to allow for the measuring of large currents. Four of these devices are coupled together to create a(*) Wheatstone Bridge. Like inductors, when in parallel, their strength adds as the inverse of the sum of the reciprocal of each one of these.
