insulator...as opposed to a conductor which does allow electrons to travel freely within it.
A battery contains a charge of electrons. When these electrons leave the battery and travel through a circuit that is described as current.
It's kinda like a fire if there is nothing to burn the fire wont go there, so with electrons if there is nothing to travel in to (like a switch, a light bulb, a buzzer ect.) the electrons wont go there because they can't just travel through air like fire can't just travel through air.
firstly you need a battery or a cell to produce a p.d or to produce current (flow of electrons). the opp charges will always attract each other. therefore, the electrons travel through the wire from the -ve terminal of the battery to the +ve.
The atom's nucleus and electrons are held together by electromagnetic force. The positive charges of the protons balance the negative charges of the electrons.
Electricity can travel throughout freely moving Electrons, like in metal which is in wires under the rubber.

Through ions or electrons.
Generally speaking, a material that does not let electrons travel through it, a material that has a very high resistance to electron flow (electric current), is called an insulator.

The flow of the electricity is being pushed through the circuit because of the electrons.
Electrons are able to travel close to speed of light.
A xorn is, in the world of Dungeons and Dragons, a fictional monster which devours earthen and silicate materials and can travel freely through earth.
Cotton wool is not a conductor or an insulator it is a semi conductor. It is sort of in the middle, electrons can travel through cotton wool but not as good as silver, bronze, metal and so on.
In an ordinary electrical cell (commonly called a battery) the electrons will travel from the -ve terminal through the circuit to the +ve terminal. [Hope I understood your question.]
