A resistor or an inductor. The inductor limits transient current, not steady state current.
Limits current flow and drops voltage.

An inductive load can cause current to lag voltage in an AC circuit. An increase in resistance will decrease amount of current flow.
In a series circuit, components (such as resistors, bulbs, or other devices) are connected end-to-end so that there is only one path for the current to flow. Because there is only one pathway for the current, the same current passes through each component in the circuit. This principle is derived from the conservation of electric charge. Since charge cannot accumulate or disappear in a closed circuit, the current that enters a component must be equal to the current that exits that component. In other words, the flow of current is continuous and consistent throughout the series circuit. Mathematically, this can be expressed as: I_total = I_1 = I_2 = I_3 = ... = I_n Where: I_total is the total current entering the series circuit. I_1, I_2, I_3, ..., I_n are the currents through each individual component in the circuit. It's important to note that while the current remains the same throughout a series circuit, the voltage (potential difference) across each component can vary depending on its resistance or impedance, according to Ohm's Law (V = I * R).
No, an ammeter should never be placed in parallel with a component - it should always be placed in series, so that the current through the component is measured.If you place an ammeter in parallel with a component, you create a short circuit around the component. Depending on the rest of the circuit, you could damage the circuit, damage the ammeter, create a fire, etc. You certainly will affect the current through the component, and that is not what you want to accomplish.
A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that limits the current flowing in electrical or electronic circuits.
A seríes circuit will not work when a component burns out, because then no current can pass around the circuit.
A transistor, working in active mode, can amplify a current in a circuit.
In a parallel circuit the voltages for each component are all the same, and the current is shared, each component drawing a current depending on its conductance. In a series circuit, the current in each component is the same, and so each one gets a voltage proportional to its resistance.
It depends on the nature of the circuit. In a purely-resistive circuit, the current would rise immediately because resistance merely limits its value, it doesn't oppose any change in current. But in a resistive-inductive circuit, for example, the inductive component opposes any change in current, so the current will rise more gradually.
