As per Loss formulae: I^2.R & Ohm's Law: I inversely proportional to R.
More Resistance higher will be the loss.
1Mohm is the huge value of resistance.
Definitely, the output voltage is very less.
Hence, the answer for least effect is 300 ohm.
Otherwise, Data is insufficient.

How possible total resistance in series is 3 ohm? while every resistance has a value of 1 Kohm.

By ohms law v=ir.
I=v/r.
I.e. I is inversely proportional to r.
Hence, when r is more than I is less but I is directly proportional to v hence v is also less. R=1Mohm is more in above options.
I=v/r.

The circuit is connected in series, so current is the same through each resistor is same....though all resistant are having the same value. Each resister will consume same power (i.e. I^2R) and the voltage drop across each resistor is same(i.e. v=IR).

Use the rule of voltmeter impact on measured circuit.

If R is max then current I will be less thus least effect on the circuit.
