they do not have any electrical property that is polarity sensitive

A resistor is not polarity sensitive, and may be installed in either direction. That's why resistors don't have pluses ( + ) or minuses ( - ) printed on them.
Yes integrated circuits have polarity.
You cannot 'reverse' the polarity of a transformer -it is either wound with 'additive polarity' or 'subtractive polarity', and there's not much you can do about it! For a single transformer, its polarity doesn't really matter. But if you are going to parallel two transformers, then you must know the polarity of each transformer in order to avoid harmful circulating currents in their secondary windings.
if not disconnected you will measure the resistance of the circuit in parallel with the resistor.
yes simply because resistor doesnt have polarity ^^

Resistors do not have a polarity. BY DEFINITION, a resistor is a device that follows Ohms law, and does so regardless of the polarity in which it is inserted into a circuit. Manufacturers of resistors do all they can to make their resistors follow that definition. One way to make a resistor have no polarity is to build it so that it is mechnically symmetrical about its two leads. Doing so will ensure that it will also be electrically symmetrical, and thus non-polarized
No, they have no polarity. They are just like a resistor in terms of polarity, and they allow to measure temperatures because their resistance varies with temperature in a predictable way.
Hi! Well, it depends what voltage is "pushing" harder on the resistor. If you are ONLY dealing with 2 voltage sources and a single resistor, then the voltage source with the higher potential (or voltage) will dictate what polarity the resistor is. Cheers!
no there is no consideration of positive or negative legs in case of resistor.

Resistors have no polarity. The voltage across a resistor is determined by the direction of current flowing through that resistor (and vice versa).
A: by using thevenin theorem
cuz a resistor is basically a long wire , that resists some of the charges flowing across it. it has resistive properties which stops some of the current from flowing from one terminal to the other. so....as it is just a piece of wire....it doesn't need a +ve or a -ve terminal
-- negative polarity -- positive polarity
A: Current flow only one way form positive to a less positive point. However it is possible to measure negative and positive voltage drop it the meter leads are reversed.
