Question
Which of these is a correct definition of electronic current?

Answer

  1. Current that flows from lower potential to higher potential.
Explanation:
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.
