Current is the rate of flow of electric charge past a point or

region. An electric current is said to exist when there is a net

flow of electric charge through a region. In electric circuits this
charge is often carried by electrons moving through a wire.
Electric circuit is a path in which electrons from a voltage or current
source flow. The point where those electrons enter an electrical circuit is
called the "source" of electrons. The point where the electrons leave
an electrical circuit is called the "return" or "earth ground".
