Why is a battery important in an electrical circuit?

• As a source of energy.

• As a path for electricity to flow through.

• As a connector to connect all parts of a circuit.

Why must parts of a circuit be properly connected before the bulb can light up?

• To ensure that the bulb can light up.

• To ensure that the battery can produce light in a closed circuit.

• To ensure that electric current can flow through the closed circuit.

Look at the diagram. Why did the bulb not light up?

• The bulb was fused.

• The battery had not enough electric current to light up the bulb.

• The switch was opened and prevented electric current from flowing through the circuit.

The diagram shows a complete circuit but the bulb did not light up. Why?

• The plastic spoon is an insulator of electricity and prevented electric current from flowing through the circuit.

• The plastic spoon is not connected properly and prevented electric current from flowing through the circuit.

• The plastic spoon is a conductor of electricity and prevented electric current from flowing through the circuit.
