why does a conducting wire of resistance to the flow of electrons

An electric current flows when electrons move through a conductor, such as a metal wire. The moving electrons can collide with the ions in the metal. ... The resistance of a thin wire is greater than the resistance of a thick wire because a thin wire has fewer electrons to carry the current.

Hey dude,
↝The conducting wire consists of free electrons.
↝The flow of electrons coming from the current source have to travel through that conducting wire consisting of free electrons.
↝The incoming electrons sometimes collide or hit the free electrons present inside the conducting wire.
↝These collisions slows down the speed of flow of current and obstructs its path.
↝This is how resistance occurs.
