Basically, one option - for providing energy to a circuit - is a cell or battery; the other option is to connect the circuit to an electrical outlet. With a cell, the current will be DC; with an electrical outlet, it will be AC (alternating current, that is, the direction of the current changes several times per second). You should also keep in mind the voltage - household current has a fairly high voltage (110 or 220 volts), compared to a cell (typically around 1.5 volts) or even a car battery (usually 12 volts).

A cell basically works as a producer of a potential difference in the circuit which is necessary for the electrons to travel in a region. Therefore using this principle we can understand that almost anything that can produce a PD can be used in an electric circuit. The best example would be of emf through EM induction of the Faraday's experiment
The function of a cell in an electrical circuit is to push the lectrons around the circuit. It can also be the source of charge in an electrical circuit.
A cell has internal resistance, which means that some of the potential(voltage) it provides is used up just in getting current out of the cell and into the circuit.
Current doesn't flow inside the cell. The cell is used to push current through an external circuit. The so-called "conventional" current flows out of the positive terminal of the cell, through the circuit, and back into the negative terminal of the cell. The confusing truth is that the actual physical carrier of current is the electron, which carries a negative charge. So the things that are actually moving and carrying the current through the circuit leave the dry cell from its negative terminal, physically flow through the circuit, and end up at the cell's positive terminal.

In a circuit, a cell acts as a power source by providing electrical energy to power lights and motors. It converts chemical energy stored within it into electrical energy that can be used to produce light in bulbs or generate motion in motors. The flow of electrons from the cell through the circuit is what ultimately powers these devices.
The term used for the energy transferred by a cell to the current is "voltage." It is the potential difference created by the cell's battery that drives the flow of electrons through a circuit.
The nodes of the electrochemical cell are called the electrodes. The Cathode is the + end (of a battery). Negative charge enters through it. The - end is called the anode.
Electric circuits are everywhere. In your car, home, office, your digital watch, your cell phone and on and on. The electric circuit that makes up your cell phone provides the local user interface and connects to a cell tower to allow you to make and receive calls.
A pre-owned cell phone is a "used cell phone," one that was previously used by someone else. They probably traded it in when they upgraded to a newer model. It is the same as a pre owned car or "used car."
Yes, there are several used cell phone dealers online. The best place to search for a used cell phone is Ebay. They have used cells phones for the cheapest price.
