How does adding a resistor to an electric circuit affect the current?(1 point) The resistor decreases the current by transforming electrical energy into different types of energy. The resistor decreases the current by decreasing the amount of electric charge. The resistor increases the current by transforming light energy or heat into electrical energy. The resistor increases the current by increasing the amount of electric charge.

The first choice. A resistor reduces the current (for a given voltage) by converting electrical energy into other forms (mainly heat), as described by Ohm’s law V = IR and Joule heating.
