Question
In an electric circuit, the current flows from the _________.
Answer: Option C
:
C
In an electric circuit, the conventional direction of the current is taken as from the positive terminal to the negative terminal. Because earlier it was believed that the protons are responsible for electric current. Eventually, we found that the electrons are responsible for electric current. Electrons are free to move and the flow of electrons is from negative to the positive terminal. The direction of an electric current by convention is the direction in which a positive charge would move.
