A group of students sets up an electric circuit with wires, a battery, and a light bulb. Why is their circuit called a direct circuit?(1 point)

Question

Responses

The light bulb is directly connected to the battery.
The light bulb is directly connected to the battery.

The circuit is complete, so electrons can flow freely.
The circuit is complete, so electrons can flow freely.

The flow of electrons travels in one direction.
The flow of electrons travels in one direction.

The electrons flow back and forth through the circuit.

Answer 1

The correct response is:

The flow of electrons travels in one direction.

This is because a direct current (DC) circuit allows electrons to flow in a single direction, which is characteristic of such circuits compared to alternating current (AC) circuits where the flow of electrons reverses periodically.
