A photo resistor decreases in resistance as illumination increases. I don't believe there are any discrete components that accomplish what you are asking. You may need to use a photo resistor, combined with a transistor to invert this operation.
A Cadmium Disulphide cell. (aka Cds cell)
The internal resistance of a cell is not constant because a cell needs to move and be flexible in order to undergo various osmosis or diffusion processes.
due to the electrolyte present between the two electodes of the cell
Yes they do have a resistance. Even though a battery is a voltage source it has some thevenin resistance. Every lead plate and cell of sulfuric acid, will have a small resistance. The thevenin resistance is equivalent or sum of all those resistances.
The resistance measured across the excitation terminals of the load cell, when the output terminals are open.
