Electricity can flow in an electric circuit by a battery. The battery creates electrons, which flow through the wire, and then go into a light bulb. (That is how a light bulb in a circuit lights up.) A series circuit is a circuit with one wire that electrons can flow through. Also, there can be more than one light bulb connecting to the same wire. A parallel circuit is a circuit with light bulbs that have their own wire.
Clarification
The above answer, unfortunately, perpetuates the myth that current leaves a battery, and finds its way around a circuit. This is not the case at all. It is the load that 'draws' the current from the battery and it is the load that determines the size of that current.

What is a continuous flow of electricity is called?
A current.
When did you refer to electricity as current?
Current is the rate of flow of electric charge.
The flow of charged particles is an electric?
The flow of electricity is called electrical current.
How are electricity and static electricity different?
none, except:static electricity is electric charge without current flow, usually induced by friction between two different insulating materials.dynamic electricity is electric charge with current flow.when static electricity is discharged it is no longer static, as there is current flow during the discharge.
What is electrons contribution to electricity?
flow of free electrons produce electric current
What is current elctricity?
current electricity is the flow of charge is called the current and it is the rate at which electric charges pass through a conducter
What metal doesn't change when electricity goes through it?
Electric current is a flow of electric charge through a medium
If a material conducts electricity easily what will it have?
It must have a low resistance to the flow of electric current.
Where does electricity get energy?
An electric current HAS energy. The energy comes from whatever caused the electric current to flow in the first place - for example, a generator, or a battery.
Is a electric current a flow of electricity?
The flow of electrons from a body at a higher voltage to one at a lower voltage is flow of current.
The flow of electric charges is called?
The flow of electric charges is current.
Do you use static electricity in your homes or current electricity?
electric current (alternating)
