Which of the listed statements is correct when using an digital multimeter set up as an ohmmeter?

Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation

Correct Answer: Option C — With the test leads shorted together, a reading of 'zero' ohms will be displayed.

Shorting the test leads of a functional digital ohmmeter removes external resistance, resulting in a direct display reading of zero ohms of resistance.
