You need a source of electrical potential difference, also known as voltage (which is the technical term for what for you call "electric pressure"). The easiest and most common voltage source is a household battery. Hook up the positive electrode of the battery using a conductor (eg. a copper wire) to one end of your circuit and the negative electrode to the other end, and voila, you'll have electric current flowing through your circuit.

What circuit is it when electrical current has two or more paths to follow?
A circuit in which electricity only flows in one path is called a series circuit.
Electricity will flow only if an electrical circuit is?
if an electric circuit has potential difference. Electricity will flow only if an electrical circuit is closed.
Describe how a battery causes electrons to move in a circuit?
The electrons don't actually move the electricity; the charge moves. The electrons slowly drift in the opposite direction from the charge.
What circuit does not allow electricity to flow through?
An open circuit.
When electricity takes the easy path what type of circuit is this?
an incomplete circuit
What kind of electricity moves through a circuit?
Current Electricity
In an electric current electricity flow how?
Electricity can flow in an electric circuit by a battery. The battery creates electrons, which flow through the wire, and then go into a light bulb. (That is how a light bulb in a circuit lights up.) A series circuit is a circuit with one wire that electrons can flow through. Also, there can be more than one light bulb connecting to the same wire. A parallel circuit is a circuit with light bulbs that have their own wire.ClarificationThe above answer, unfortunately, perpetuates the myth that current leaves a battery, and finds its way around a circuit. This is not the case at all. It is the load that 'draws' the current from the battery and it is the load that determines the size of that current.
What particle moves when electricity flows through a circuit?
Electrons
What is a path which electricity current flows?
"circuit"
What pushes electricity through a circuit?
the current
What does a current do in a circuit?
goes around the circuit carrying electricity all around the circuit
Will an electrical current move through an open circuit or a closed circuit?
electricity
When electricity moves through a wire what is created?
Current
Do protons travel through an electric circuit at or near the speed of light?
Electricity, this may be electrons in a direct current. In an alternating current the electrons stay where they are and it is only the energy that moves between electrons.
What happens if the track of the current is broken in a series circuit?
In a series circuit, if the current is broken the flow of all electricity stops.
What is the logic behind flow of electricity without circuit?
current
How do magnets help create electricity?
If a conductor - such as a wire - moves through a magnetic field, a voltage is produced in the conductor. This may cause a current (if the wire is connected to an external circuit). This effect is used in generators to generate electricity.
