Friction is one of the many various types of retardant forces that resist motion. To the point, friction reduces the net force in a direction by acting in the opposite direction (effectively slowing it down).
Take for example a car driving along the road. The car could be generating a force of say 5000 Newtons to the right and as a result of the tyres contacting the road surface, a frictional force of say 500N is generated to the left. This means that the net force is 4500N to the right. Take note then for this example if the frictional force was 5000N the car would be stationary.
It resists the motion (slows it down)
Friction causes object in motion to slow down. As friction increases, it takes more and more energy for an object to keep its inertia (momentum) and it begins to slow down.
Friction can stop an object in motion eventually. Friction causes drag on the object's motion energy and slows the object down by transferring the energy from one type to another. When the energy which acted on the object to put the object in motion is fully transferred, the object's motion will stop in the direction the motion and friction are applied. An example of this type of friction is the brake on a car. Friction can, however cause the object to change the direction of motion and simply stop affecting the object afterward. An example of this type of friction is the bumper rail of a pool table.
Friction inhibits the motion of objects.
Nothing on that list has any effect on an object's motion.
Friction universally counteracts the motion of an object, causing it to slow down.

If the friction is less, then the position will stay the same and NOTHING would act upon the Object.
The motion of the object might slow down or just change itself object would resist moving or keep moving. An object can have static friction, sliding friction, or rolling friction.
Friction always resist motion if the object is sliding on surface.
motion of free falling object does not have friction, while motion of the cart has force of friction
no, friction just changes the motion of an object.
friction is: When an object exerts an opposite force on an object in motion.
Friction inhibits the motion of objects.
