No. A positron is the antiparticle of an electron, meaning it has the same mass but an opposite charge and magnetic moment.

The electric current in a medical conductor is carried by positive electrons or electrons?

The answer is electrons. I assume you mean positrons (anti-electrons) by positive electrons, and positrons and electrons go boom when they meet, so we don't see many positrons around.

Are gamma rays positrons?

No, they are not.Gamma rays are photons - just like light. They are electrically neutral. They move at the speed of light. Positrons, also known as anti-electrons, have a positive charge. They move at speeds less than the speed of light.

What are positrons made out of?

Electrons are not known to be made out of anything smaller - as far as we know, they seem to be truly elementary particles. The same applies to the anti-electron (positron).
