A circuit is any arrangement of objects (circuit elements) in which an electric current flows through a closed loop. The only absolutely essential elements of a circuit are something to make the current go, called a source, and something to carry the current around the circuit, called a conductor (usually, a wire, a metal trace on a circuit board, or some of each.) There are many other kinds of circuit elements that have various properties, and each of these may serve a number of different functions. The most basic of the elements are the resistor, the capacitor, and the inductor. Others include Transformers, transistors (of various types.) diodes, and many more. There properties and functions are so varied as to far exceed what can be written here; indeed, they fill large textbooks. Multiple sources exist on the web with some basic information on these that is beyond the scope of a single answer here. Just Google it, and try Wikipedia.

What parts to circuits have to contain?
The absolute minimum for a circuit is continuity. Without this it is not yet a circuit.
What is the function of the parts of the lever?
What is the function of each part of the lever
Why is it that the current flowing through a parallel circuit is the different in all parts of the circuit?
Because there is many path for flowing current through circuit.
What is the function of photodiode?
the function of a photodiode is produce some reverse current in the external resistor of circuit.
What are the parts of a scanning electron microscope parts?

What is the main part eletricity circuit?
An electric circuit is a system of several parts. The circuit cannot function without all of them therefore there is no 'main' part. Essential parts are; power source, conducting material, load.
What is the function of a slide switch?
Slide Switches work on the principle of connecting disconnected parts to each other. The 'switch' connects two parts allowing the current to pass through it.
What is the function of a cell in an electrical circuit?
it's function is to supply energy(electric)
What is the function of electric circuit control device?
the function of the control device is that you can know if the circuit is on or off
What is the function of a power source in a circuit?
the function of a power source in a circuit is that it provides a steady source of static electricity
What is the function in a power source in a circuit?
the function of a power source in a circuit is that it provides a steady source of static electricity
What OF parts of circuit?
Simple parts of a circuit are switches, light bulb, battery and connecting wires.
What function in a circuit for a switch?
A switch is a make - break device. Its function is a circuit is to make and break the current flow of the circuit that it is in. This action then starts and stops the load that is connected in the circuit.
What is the electric circuit where current flows through all parts of the circuit?
complex circuit
What is the function of a transisitor in a circuit?
