Charge flow in a circuit

Charge flow in a circuit

Circuit with a cell, ammeter in series, resistor, voltmeter in parallel across the resistor, and an arrow showing conventional current A circuit is a closed loop that lets charge move. In metal wires the moving particles are electrons, but conventional current is defined as the direction positive charge would flow.
