Answer:
Forth...
Because the thickness of a wire is usually represented by its diameter. Thus when the diameter of a wire is doubled (made 2 times), its resistance becomes one-fourth (1/4), and if the diameter of a wire is halved (made 1/2), then its resistance becomes four times (4 times).

•As we know that Resistance is inversely propotional to the square of its diameter.
So now,
When the diameter is halved the resistance of the wire becomes Four times.
Therefore,Option C is correct.
