The correct response is:
The resistor decreases the current by transforming electrical energy into different types of energy.
A resistor adds resistance to the circuit, which opposes the flow of current. As a result, the current decreases when a resistor is added. Resistors convert electrical energy into heat (and sometimes light, depending on the resistor) due to the energy dissipated as current flows through them.
