Three resistors are connected to a \(20\) V battery with a constant voltage supply. One of the resistors is a variable resistor. The resistance of the variable resistor is gradually increased from \(0~\Omega\) to \(5\) \(\Omega.\)
Which graph correctly represents how the current drawn from the battery varies with the resistance \((R)\) of the variable resistor?

Assertion (A): | Resistance of a conducting metallic wire depends on the voltage applied across it and current passing through it. |
Reason (R): | Ohm's law is also valid for semiconductors. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is true but (R) is false. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are false. |
