- In sentence II, "resistance" also reflects opposition, showing how employees are protesting against a decision.
- In sentence III, "resistance" refers to electrical resistance, which is a measure of how much a material opposes the flow of electric current.
Therefore, sentence III uses the word "resistance" with a different meaning than in the main statement.
