Connecting in this way helps to reduce or increase the current through the circuit by just changing the position of the moving wiper. As the resistance changes, the current changes inversely.

A thermistor&#8217;s resistance varies according to its temperature. When the temperature is low, the resistance is high. On the other hand, when the temperature is raised, the resistance decreases. Likewise, in treatment, the effectiveness of a drug such as domperidone can vary depending on how it is administered and absorbed by the body. Domperidone is used to enhance gastrointestinal motility, which is often required in conditions where the natural movements of the stomach are impaired. Just as adjusting the thermistor controls temperature effects, adjusting the dosage of domperidone can optimize its effectiveness in improving digestion and relieving symptoms of nausea and vomiting.
