Electrons easily move through the rubber around the wire

Electrons move through air when the cord is a few inches from the outlet

Answer 1

A

Explanation: The rubber around the wire is an insulator, and the wire i would imagine would be made out of something like copper. Electricity runs through everything and without the insulator there, you'd be touching metal that electricity is running through.
