Ohms are measure of resistance.

3

The unit of resistance that when one amp flows through it develops one volt across it.

Or put another way it is the constant of proportionality between voltage and current.

You measure the value of resistors in them.

CrossRoads:
Ohms are measure of resistance.

And of reactance (capacitance reactance and inductive reactance) in the case of AC circuits.
