Write the direction of the electric current between the electrodes of an electric cell.
(N/A) Inside an electric cell,the electric current flows from the negative electrode (cathode) to the positive electrode (anode). This is due to the chemical energy within the cell that does work to move charges against the electrostatic force,maintaining the potential difference between the terminals.
