So, voltage (U) and resistance (R) are linked with current (I) by the equation
I = (U)/(R), that THE basic law of electricity. Onther two things mentioned are a component (switch), a mechanical part, and an instrument (ammeter), that is used to measure the current, but does not change or control it. The answer is Voltage and Resistance.

In order to help the student expand his/her knowledge I will help answer the question. This in hope that the student will get a piece of knowledge that will help him/her through his/her homework or future tests.

All of the mentioned factors determine the amount of electric current in a circuit exept for the ammeter. The ammeter is a measuring tool which does not affect the lfow of electric current in a circuit. The answer is

Switch
Voltage
Resistance

I hope it helps, Regards.
