Why do low resistance components have low voltage?
This has to do with Ohm's Law V=IR, where V is voltage, I is current, and R is resistance. Assuming you keep I constant, V increases as R increases. Thus, when you have low resistance, you have low voltage.
The question is not so clear - it could be what Agent just said, or it could be a question about design. If it is, then you would want to keep the voltage low in low resistance components since Power = V/R^2. You usually don't want high power. But, you are probably looking for agent's answer.
Agree with startrooper228 the question is not clear. Low voltage may be used to keep currents within a reasonable value. Protection for high currents when even they become excessive is expensive.
Regardless, Ohms law prevails and is the basis for any answer.
