connect the base of the transistor to a variable resistor and to a normal resistor
It depends on the resistance of each resistor. If each resistor, for example, is 0.333 ohm, then you could connect them in series. If each resistor, for example, is 3 ohms, then you could connect them in parallel.
Connect a variable resistance across DC source (fixed ends of variable resistor or Rheostat) and take decreased DC output across its one fixed terminal and other variable terminal of variable resistor. Other method is connect variable resistor in series with DC output and load, vary the resistance and take decreased DC voltage as required.
In its simplest use a resistor in a circuit is used to limit the amount of current flow, or to decrease the amount of voltage applied to a device. One example is you had a 12 volt battery and you need/ wanted to connect it to a device that ran on 9 volts then a resistor can be chosen to reduce the 12 volts to the 9 volts required.

To connect a variable resistor to a circuit, identify the two terminals of the variable resistor. Connect one terminal to the input or output of the circuit where you want to adjust the resistance. Connect the other terminal to either the ground or another reference point depending on the circuit's design. Ensure that the resistance value on the variable resistor is adjusted as needed for your circuit application.
if you want to find the current (in amperes) through the resistor then connect a ammeter in series with the resistor.
Why would you buy something that does absolutely nothing? If you need a "zero ohm resistor", just don't connect any resistor at all.Why would you buy something that does absolutely nothing?

It depends on the purpose for installing the resistor. If the intent is to decrease current flow, the resistor must be connected in series with the load. If the purpose is to increase current flow, the resistor must be connected in parallel with the load. To connect a resistor in series, connect the resistor to one side of the power source, in line with the load. This will decrease circuit current flow. To connect a resistor in parallel, connect the resistor between the positive and negative sides of the power source, which will effectively connect the resistor across the load . This will increase current flow through the circuit. However, before connecting a component in parallel, make sure the increase in current flow will not exceed the current rating of the circuit or fuses/breakers will blow.

Connect a power source to the resistor (+ve terminal to one side of the resistor and -ve terminal to the other) then connect a voltmeter in parallel with the resistor. The reading on the voltmeter will provide a measure of the potential difference across the resistor (ie: the voltage drop across it).
a power source, a resistor and wiring to connect them.
in parallel
I'm going to take this as "How do you connect resistors is series?" just connect one wire of the first resistor to one wire of the second.
Connect it, in series, to a resistor or a dummy load and a switch. And then throw the switch.
Yes. You can use a voltage divider. Say, for instance, one 1KOhm resistor in series with a 3KOhm resistor. Connect the 3k resistor to the 48 volts and connect the 1k resistor to ground. The 1k resistor will have 12 volts acress it. These resistors need to be at least 1 watt each as they are going to dissipate 0.576 watts and get warm. Now, if you attempt to pull power from the 1k resistor, note that regulation will be poor because the impedance of the load will go in parallel with the 1k resistor and change its value.
