Solution

The correct option is A True
In a circuit, the electrons will flow from the negative terminal to the positive terminal on the application of a potential difference, provided a conducting path. The conducting path can be a metallic wire or any other medium which is a conductor of electricity. If the path is broken then the flow of electrons will stop too.
