It depends on the definition of resistance and the definition of ground. If you are referring to resistance as in resistance to electric current, the answer will be different than if you are referencing resistance as in friction. Also, the ground is not consistent. There are many types of "ground." More specification is necessary here in order to receive a sufficient answer.

How do you know if your ground wire is connected?
Measure the ground resistance from the user end point, where earth or ground cable is connected. It will show a very high resistance or open if ground is broken.
What is short to ground?
A short to ground means there is very little or no resistance between some electrical device and ground. A "dead short" would be no resistance at all. This causes very high current which blows fuses and causes overload protection devices to trip out.
What are the faults in the cable?
Cable faults are normally categorised as (a) conductor-to-earth (ground) faults, (b) conductor-to-conductor faults, and (c) conductor-to-conductor-to earth (ground) faults. In addition to that, we can categorise them by whether they are 'high-resistance' or 'low-resistance' faults.
Does plastic have a high resistance?
Yes, it has a high resistance as it is an insulator.
Do Dead batteries have high internal resistance?
yes, batteries have high internal resistance. The higher the resistance the lower power you get out of the batter. Therefore if you no power you have very high resistance.
On a 77 GMC 350 HEI system with a new pickup coil why can you get no reading for resistance between either wire and ground What could cause this you can get resistance readings everywhere else?
The resistance to ground should be infinite, becouse its an isolated circuit. Any resistance to ground less than infinity would mean there is a short to ground.
How to correct floating voltages in system neutral?
Floating means there's no reference to ground, so to fix this you supply a reference to ground (be it corner grounding, solidly grounding, high resistance grounding, etc.)
How high is your body resistance?
Your body resistance is high- hard to push electrons through.
What is high resistance and low resistance?
Low resistance lets electrons through easy, and high makes it harder for them to pass. Basically electricity is harder to flow through high resistance and vice versa.
What is high resistance what is low resistance?
Low resistance lets electrons through easy, and high makes it harder for them to pass. Basically electricity is harder to flow through high resistance and vice versa.
What are some ways a material's electrical resistance is used to accomplish a certain job?
A good example of electrical resistance is the heating element on a stove top it is a very poor conductor (high electrical resistance) because it is a poor conductor the electrical energy is converted to heat. Glass is one of the best insulators because its electrical resistance is so high it is a non conductor this lets us use it on high power lines to keep the electricity from coming in contact with the ground.
Is graphite a high resistance or low resistance of electricity?
Graphite is low resistance of electricity...
