Question
Assertion : Bending a wire does not effect electrical resistance.
Reason : Resistance of wire is proportional to resistivity of material.

Answer

(a) Resistance wire $R=\rho \frac{l}{A}$. where $\rho$ is resistivity of material which does not depend on the geometry of wire. Since when wire is banded, resistivity, length and area of cross-section do not change, therefore resistance of wire also remain same.
