MCQ
Which of these is a correct definition of electronic current?
  • ✓
    Current that flows from lower potential to higher potential.
  • B
    The current which remains static.
  • C
    Current constituted by the flow of ions.
  • D
    Current that flows from higher potential to lower potential.
✓

Answer

Correct option: A.
Current that flows from lower potential to higher potential.

The current that flows from a point at the lower $($negative$)$ potential to a point at higher $($positive$)$ potential is called electronic current. Electronic current is produced by the movement of negatively charged electrons.
