Image
  • A
    Silicon
  • B
    Polymer
  • C
    Nichrome
  • D
    Copper

Answer

  1. Copper

Explanation:

For metals, the temperature coefficient of resistivity is positive. At lower temperatures, the resistivity of a pure metal increases as a higher power of temperature. So, the answer is copper, which is a metal.
