Yes, the resistance is directly proportional to length of wire and inversely proportional Area, hence when Length of wire increases the resistance also increases and when Area increases the resistance decreases. This means a thick wire has least amount of Electrical resistance.

Which diode will work when two different diodes are in parallel?

the path of least Resistance electricity is like water it flows in the direction of least Resistance so current should flow in the diode with the lowest Resistance but if the draw on current was high enough it would also start to flow in the higher resistance diode


What a substance with least amount of resistance?

There are several substances that have zero electrical resistance. Those are known by the generic name of "superconductors". So far, superconduction has only been observed at cryogenic (i.e., "supercold") temperatures.
