The scientist measured the resistences of different materials before designing the new sensor.

In his notes he consistently wrote 'resistence', using a rare variant of the word.

Several resistants emerged after the repeated use of the same pesticide, making control more difficult.

The resistivities of the two semiconductor samples differed markedly after annealing.

The resistive heating element warmed the room slowly but steadily.

The old circuit heated resistively when the current spiked during the storm.

The proposal's resistibility was evident when several members declined to support it.

The resistful crowd refused to leave the plaza despite the police orders.

The temptation was resistibly mild, so he walked away.

Despite its ornate design, the new security door's resistibleness surprised the locksmith, who expected it to be easier to breach.
