Q4 of 52 Page 351

Write a low resistance device name which is always connected in series with the device through which the current is to be measured.

Ammeter is a device that is connected in series so as to measure the current through the circuit. It has a very low resistance so that maximum current passes through it and thus the correct amount of current through the circuit can be measured.
