The correct answer is **C. Resistor**.
A resistor is specifically designed to reduce the flow of current in a circuit by providing resistance. While diodes control current flow in a different manner, capacitors store and release electrical energy, and rheostats are variable resistors that can also adjust current flow but are still considered a type of resistor.
