There are various forms of resistors used for electronic circuits. You can divide it in mainly two basic types:Fixed Resistors: The resistors that come with two wires are listed in this resistor type. These kinds of resistors do not allow you to change the resistance.Variable Resistors: These types of resistors allow you to change the resistance using the resistance using the knob.Some other types or resistors are as following:Carbon Film ResistorMetal Oxide Film ResistorPrecision Metal Film ResistorWire Wound Resistor (WWR)Power Film ResistorPrecision Wire Wound ResistorHigh Power Wire Wound ResistorPhotocellLight Dependant Resistor (LDR)Voltage Dependant Resistor (VDR)

most of the resistors commonly used are carbon resistors
Timing circuits, and any circuit that depends on the resistor value being fairly precise, such as voltage dividers and comparators. Old story....engineers knew that you couldn't pick through a bunch of loose precision resistors to find close tolerance resistors....The manufacurer already took the close precision resistors and sold them separately. This is not so true these days. Even low tolerance resistors might be high precision. Usually the manufacturer will fill the loose precision needs with parts better than required.
The total resistance of resistors in series is simply the sum of the resistance values of those resistors. If the resistors are identical, then you can multiply the resistance of one of them by the number of resistors in the circuit.
Film resistors have lower noise than carbon resistors.
Resistors are wired in series when they are connected in a line. The current flows through the resistors one after the other.
Both resistors will have the voltage of the battery.
Carbon composition resistors are resistors that are made with carbon or graphite mixed with a binding material. It's one type of resistors among several. There are also carbon-film resistors and metal-film resistors. Out of all the resistors, carbon-film resistors have the greatest tolerances and changes to temperature fluctations. Thus, they are used in applications where precision isn't critical and where temperature will not change drastically.
Resistors are like funnels, they restrict the flow of current.
