Current flows through a resistor, not across it.
A resistor affects the flow of electricity in a circuit by reducing the current that flows through it. This reduction in current leads to a decrease in voltage across the resistor.
When an electric current flows through a resistor, the resistor resists the flow of the current, causing a decrease in the current. This decrease in current is proportional to the resistance of the resistor, as described by Ohm's Law.
A resistor reduces the flow of current in an electrical circuit, which in turn affects the voltage across the resistor.
A resistor limits current in an electrical circuit by impeding the flow of electrons, which reduces the amount of current passing through it. This, in turn, helps regulate the voltage in the circuit by creating a drop in voltage across the resistor.
A resistor restricts the flow of current in an electrical circuit by resisting the flow of electrons. This causes a decrease in the amount of current that can pass through the circuit.
No. If a voltage is applied across a resistor, a current flows through it.
Current flows in loops, voltage drops across elements. With relation to current, what flows in, must flow out, so no, current is not dropped across a resistor, it flows through a resistor and voltage is dropped across the resistor.

Voltage / Resistance = Current, you do the math
Normally through the resistor's internal construction. It flows through any part of the resistor that has low resistance- be it anywere. And then there's this. It might be that one should consider that current flows through a resistor and voltage is dropped across a resistor. Perhaps this is where the question began. The former is fairly straight forward. The latter can be vexing. Voltage is said to be dropped across a resistor when current is flowing through it. The voltage drop may be also considered as the voltage measureable across that resistor or the voltage "felt" by that resistor. It's as if that resistor was in a circuit by itself and hooked up to a battery of that equivalent voltage.

An ammeter is a low voltage voltmeter in parallel with a small resistance resistor. Current flow through the resistor creates a voltage drop across it which is then measured by the voltmeter.
A 4000-Ω resistor is connected across 220 V will have a current flow of 0.055 A.Ohm's law: Voltage equals Current times Resistance
A resistor limits current in an electrical circuit by impeding the flow of electrons, which reduces the amount of current passing through it. This, in turn, helps regulate the voltage in the circuit by creating a drop in voltage across the resistor.
A very very tiny amount of the current that would normally flow through the resistor instead flows through the voltmeter, allowing it to make its measurement. For most purposes this very very tiny amount of current can be completely ignored.
