- APotential drop across AB is nearly constant as R' is varied.
- BCurrent through R' is nearly a constant as R' is varied.
- CCurrent I depends sensitively on R'.
- D$\text{I}\geq\frac{\text{V}}{\text{r}+\text{R}}$ always.


Solution:
Key concept: Parallel grouping

Same potential difference appeared across each resistance but current distributes in the reverse ration of their resistance, i.e. $\text{i}\propto\frac{\text{l}}{\text{R}}$
In this problem, the potential drop is taking place across AB and r. Since the equivalent resistance of parallel combination of R and R' is always less than R, therefore current will be greater than or equal to $\text{I}\geq\frac{\text{V}}{\text{r}+\text{R}}$ always.
Important poin: in parallel combination of resistances, the equivalent resistance is smaller than smallest resistance present in combination.
