Ryan wants to build a complete circuit that includes a battery and a light bulb. What else will Ryan need in the circuit to light up the light bulb using the battery? Select ALL that apply.

• a wire that connects the negative end of the battery to the light bulb

• a wire that connects the positive end of the battery to the light bulb

Lilly builds a simple circuit to light up a light bulb. Her design is shown in the diagram. The light bulb in Lilly's circuit does not light up. Which describes the reason?

John wants to create a circuit to light up a bulb. He has a copper wire and a light bulb. What else does he need?

• a power source like a battery

• a switch that will turn the power on and off

• an insulator that will stop the flow of electricity

Drag each of the choices to classify them as examples of static electricity or current electricity.

Mika takes a load of clothes out of the dryer. She notices that a pair of socks are stuck together. When she separates the socks, she feels a small shock and hears a crackling sound. Is this an example of static electricity or human-harnessed electricity?
