What does an electric circuit mean?

Answer: An electric circuit denotes a closed and continuous lap of current electricity. Such a circuit includes electric devices, an electricity source and eventually the wires which we need to connect by using a switch. 

Features of an electric circuit:

  1. The circuit is made up of wires. It is functional with the help of a battery.
  2. The point at which electrons start to move is marked as the current source. The return point indicates the location where electrons leave the circuit.
  3. A complete electrical circuit must contain at least a single closed loop.
