Resistance is the opposition to current flow in a specific conductor, measured in ohms (Ω), while resistivity is an intrinsic property of a material that determines how strongly it resists current flow, measured in ohm-meters (Ω·m). Resistance depends on the conductor's dimensions (length and cross-sectional area), whereas resistivity remains constant for a given material regardless of its shape or size.
