"Opposition to current" can refer to resistance, reactance, or impedance.
(coulomb) A quantity of electric charge. Passage of 1 coulomb per second along a wire is called 1 amp (ampere) of electric current.
Impedance may refer to: the ratio of the voltage phasor to the electric current phasor, as in Electrical impedance, a measure of opposition to time-varying electric current in an electric circuit. Characteristic impedance, a measure of opposition to electric current propagation in a transmission line. Impedance matching and Impedance mismatch. Vacuum impedance, a universal constant. Electromagnetic impedance, a constant related to electromagnetic wave propagation in a medium. Mechanical impedance, a measure of opposition to motion of a structure subjected to a force. Acoustic impedance, a constant related to the propagation of sound waves in an acoustic medium. Linear response function, a general way to represent the input-output characteristics of a system.

The opposition to current in a circuit is known as Electrical Resistance (R) and is measured in Ohms (Ω)
A electric current produces a magnetic field
A measurement of opposition to electric current flow in a component or circuit.
The impedance of an electric circuit is the measure of the opposition presented by a circuit when the current and voltage is applied.
The impedance of electric circuit refers to the measure of the opposition that a circuit presents to a current when a voltage is applied.
Not really, insulators simply cannot support the passage of an electric current.
Electric current flows in conducting materials such as metals. The best conductor of electric current is silver, followed closely by copper and then aluminium.
Resistance is the opposition to the flow of electric current through a conductor. It is defined as the ratio of the potential difference (volts) between the ends of the conductor to the magnitude of the current (amps) through the conductor.
