No. You are confusing general things here."Electricity" is a whole range of phenomena related to electrical charges.
An "electric current" involves the flow of charged particles - ANY charged particles, which may be positive or negative.
The most common case, for an electric current, is through the flow of electrons.
Electrons have a negative charge.
Positively charged electrons are actually anti-electrons, also known as positrons. For more details about this point, you may want to do some reading on "antimatter".

What refers to the flow of electrons through a wire?
Electricity is the name given to the flow of electrons. Conventionally, the electrons flow from the negative terminal to the positive. An individual electron does not make the whole trip instantaneously - an electron moves on to an atom, which then has an excess of charge, and the spare electron is passed on to the next atom, and so on.electrons are charged particles and the flow of these electrons constitute electricity.
What subatomic particle has an electric charge?
electron-negative, proton-positive, neutron-neutral
Which subatomic particle is responsibe for electricity?
Electricity can flow due to the movement of ANY charged particle. A current in metals is due to the movement of electrons, and this is the most common case for a current. However, a current can also be carried by holes, by positive or negative ions, etc.
Why hole has positive charge?
A hole is a place where an electron is missing. Since the electron has a negative charge, the lack of an electron produces a net positive charge.
What type of energy has electrically charged particles?
This is a trick question, because the word electricity, comes from the word electron. An electron is the negative charge of an atom. This same charge is electricity, that is, everything that we know to be electricity, is this negative charge. So your answer is, electricity.
Which part of the atomis responsible for creating electricity?
The electron is the part of the atom that accounts for electricity.
What is the conventional theory of electricity?
Conventional Electrical theory (simplified) states that electricity flows from positive to negative in contrast to Electron Theory which supposes negative to positive flow of electrons.
How would you describe the electron theory?
The belief that electricity flows out from a negative source seeking a positive conclusion.
How does electron pass through electricity?
An electron is electricity as we know it. Electrons flow through a conductable element and that is electricity.
What is a sentence using the word electrons?
The proton has a positive charge and the electron has a negative charge. The flow of electron charges is known as electricity.
Does positron have a negative charge?
A POSITron has a POSITive charge, hence the name. A positron is an anti-electron; since the electron has a negative charge, the positron has a positive charge.A POSITron has a POSITive charge, hence the name. A positron is an anti-electron; since the electron has a negative charge, the positron has a positive charge.A POSITron has a POSITive charge, hence the name. A positron is an anti-electron; since the electron has a negative charge, the positron has a positive charge.A POSITron has a POSITive charge, hence the name. A positron is an anti-electron; since the electron has a negative charge, the positron has a positive charge.

electron-negative, proton-positive, neutron-neutral

Which particle proton neutron or electron have a positive charge?
proton positive neutron neutral electron negative
What particle is responsible for electricity?
Electron.
How does a positive ion become a neutral atom?
It can be positive or negative depending on if the atom loses or gains an electron. If it gains an electron it becomes negative and if it loses an electron it becomes positive.

Electricity can flow due to the movement of ANY charged particle. A current in metals is due to the movement of electrons, and this is the most common case for a current. However, a current can also be carried by holes, by positive or negative ions, etc.
