a.________________
b._________________
c._________________

The energy caused by the flow of particles with negative electrical charges is called___________________

Answer 1

There is not a single set of "correct" answers for these questions. You would be essentially trying to read the mind of whoever wrote the question. For example, just the words "a" and "the" would be correct for the first question. So would "charged" and "charged".

For the "fill in the blanks" that follow, "cloud to cloud", "ground to cloud" and "cloud to ground" would fit.

For the last question, "electrical energy" would be OK. "Current" would not, because current is not energy. You can have current with no energy flow.
