Answer :
Explanation :

Resistivity : Resistivity is a measure of the resistance to the flow of electrons.  Conductivity : Conductivity is just the inverse of resistivity, σ = 1/ρ, where σ is conductivity and ρ is resistivity.   Example: Think of a pipe and water, the bigger the pipe, the easier water can flow and thus the lower the resistance.
