Answer: Semiconductor: a material that conducts electricity, but not as well as a conductor. Superconductor: a material that has zero resistance at a very low temperature. Conductor: A material through which electric current flows easily. Insulator: a material through which little electric current moves.

Explanation: A conductor is a material or a substance that easily conducts electricity. It allows electrons to flow easily from atom to atom; like humans, animals, and metals. A semiconductor is a material that has a level of conduction between a conductor and an insulator, such as the silicon. A superconductor has a high resistance to very low temperatures, such as aluminum. And an insulator has a very low capacity to conduct compared to other conductors, such as glass or porcelain.
