Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
Resistance means opposition in flow of current. The more resistance, the more the wire gets heated up, and the less resistance, the less heat the conductor will provide. The amount of heat produced is directly proportional to the conductor's resistance, so a conductor offering low resistance will warm up more slowly than high resistance.
The corrected statement would be, a conductor offering high resistance will heat up more than a conductor with low resistance.
