Answer:

Heating effect of electric current: When an electric current is passed through a conductor, it generates heat due to the hindrance which is caused by the conductor to the flowing current.

Magnetic effect of electric current: When a compass is brought near a current carrying conductor the needle of compass gets deflected because of flow of electricity. That's an example of magnetic current.

Electric Fuse: An electric fuse is a safety device used to limit the current in an electric circuit.

Transpiration: Transpiration is the process of water movement through a plant and its evaporation from aerial parts, such as leaves, stems and flowers.

Electromagnet: An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced by an electric current.
