  8. The closed and continuous path of electric circuit is called a circuit. It consists of connector, wire, cell or battery, bulb and a key.
  9. Those substances through which electric current can flow are called conductor and those substance which do not allow the current to flow through them are called insulators.Conductors have very low resistance. Insulators have very high resistance. Usually most conductors are metals. Most non - metals are insulators. Copper, silver, iron are conductors and plastic, paper, rubber are insulators.
