D)resistant

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A closed circuit is required to allow the current to flow whenever electrical energy is needed by a load. In a closed circuit, there is a complete path for the current to flow from the source to the load and back to the source. This allows the electrical energy to be transferred to the load and used to perform work. An open circuit would not allow the current to flow, and a short circuit would create a dangerous situation where the current flows freely without any resistance. A resistant circuit would limit the flow of current, but still allow it to flow when needed by the load.
