The Materials are of three kinds:

- Conductors

- Semiconductors and

- Insulators

The Insulators have the property to stop the flow of electricity, because they have less number of free electronics, which can conduct Electricity.

A material that prevents electrons from flowing freely is called what?

An insulator is a material that prevents electrons from flowing freely. This is because insulators have tightly bound electrons that do not move easily in response to an electric field. Examples of insulators include rubber, glass, and wood.

The opposition to the movement of charges flowing through a material is called what?

The opposition to the movement of charges flowing through a material is called resistance. It is a property that determines how strongly a material resists the flow of electric current.

"current"


A loop with a break in it that prevents current from flowing is called?

an open circuit.


What is the difference between a electrical conductor and a electrical nonconductor?

Simply put an conductor is a material that lets free electrons flow through it. When free electrons are flowing that is called current. So an electrical conductor will have current pass through. Non-conductive material will not allow these electrons to flow and no electricity can be passed through. Good conductors have almost no resistance to electron flow.


What flap of tissue that prevents blood from flowing backwards?

Venous valves .


What flap made of tissue that prevents blood from flowing backward is?

The flap of tissue that prevents blood from flowing backward is called a valve. Valves are found in veins and in the heart to ensure that blood flows in one direction and does not pool or backflow.


What are the numbers electrons flowing called?

The flow of electrons in a circuit is called electric current. It is measured in amperes (A) and represents the rate at which electric charge flows through a circuit.
