The correct answer is: dampening force is small

Resonance describes the phenomenon of increased amplitude that occurs when the frequency of a periodically applied force is equal or close to a natural frequency of the system on which it acts.

At resonance, the damping force becomes small enough so that the resulting oscillations have large amplitude.
