The correct answer is ohm-meter.

Explanation:

  • The SI unit of electric resistivity is the ohm-meter (Ω-m).
  • The electrical resistance per unit length and per unit of cross-sectional area at a specified temperature is called resistivity.
  • It is the property of the material.
  • A low resistivity indicates a material that readily allows the flow of electric current.
  • The resistivity is given by the following formula, 
  • \({\text{ρ}} = \frac{{{\text{RA}}}}{{{\text{L}}}}\)
  • Where:
  • ρ is the resistivity of the material.
  • R is the electrical resistance of the material.
  • A is the cross-sectional area of the material.
  • L is the length of the material.

Thus, S.I unit of electric resistivity is ohm-meter.
