Solution

The correct option is B

False


Conductors are materials that permit electrons to flow freely from particle to particle. When a voltage is applied, charged particles move from one atom to another so there is an overall flow of charge and thus an electric current. A substance or device which does not readily conduct electricity is called as an insulator. Examples of them are plastics and wood.
