Answer:

electric charges.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conduction involves the transfer of electric charge or thermal energy due to the movement of particles. When the conduction relates to electric charge, it is known as electrical conduction.

An electron can be defined as subatomic particles that are negatively charged and as such has a magnitude of -1.

An electric current is produced when electric charges (electrons) move continuously and it's measured in Amperes through the use of an ammeter.

Ohm's law states that at constant temperature, the current flowing in an electrical circuit is directly proportional to the voltage applied across the two points and inversely proportional to the resistance in the electrical circuit.

Mathematically, Ohm's law is given by the formula;


V = IR

Where;

V represents voltage measured in voltage.

I represents current measured in amperes.

R represents resistance measured in ohms.
