Question
An electric current isAa circle of wiresBa complete closed path through which electrical charges can flow.C the same as current electricityDboth a an b
Solution
The correct answer is B. An electric current is a complete closed path through which electrical charges can flow. This path is often referred to as an electrical circuit. The other options are not accurate. A circle of wires (option A) is not a comprehensive definition of electric current, and option C is incorrect because "current electricity" is just another term for electric current, not something equivalent. Option D is also incorrect because it includes option A, which is not a correct definition.
