Strangely there is two directions it is said to flow. The first and wrong is conventional current that is positive to negative. WRONG. Several hundred years ago people guest Electron current is the direction it actually goes in. This is negative to positive.

an electrical current is the movement of electrons. since electrons are negatively charged the will be attracted to the positive terminal.hence current flows from negative to positive
A circuit must have three basic components to make electricity flow. 1. Source of power or electricity. 2. Wires, switches and conductors through which the current can flow. 3. And finally a load to complete the circuit.
Direct current and Alternating both are diffrent . Alternating current changes it's cycle 50 times in both direction in one second while the direct current doesn't change it's phase or frequecncy because it is free from frequency or frequency less(direct current).
Yes, a switch is a device that stops and starts current flow in a circuit.
The movement of electron towards the high potential causes electric current to flow in a circuit.
In any series circuit, there is one and only one path for current flow. All the current flowing in the circuit will flow through all of the devices in that circuit. A break at any point in the circuit will cause current flow to cease. Lastly, it is current that is the same at any point in the circuit where we'd care to measure it.
