Use the following information to answer the next question.
Two simple electric circuits are shown in the given figure.
Direction of the current flowing through a wire segment can be shown as
for current from O to O'.
Which wire segment is not paired with the arrow head showing the direction of current flowing through it?

The correct option is D
Direction of current determines the polarity of cells. Current always flows externally from the positive terminal to the negative terminal of a cell. The direction of current in the two given circuits can be shown as:
It can be observed that the direction of current in wire segment SR is downwards. Hence, in the given table, this wire segment is incorrectly paired with the arrow head showing the direction of current flowing through it.
