Being hit by a photon gives the electron increased energy. Higher energy electrons rise into another energy level. *Also when it releases a photon it drops to a lower energy level because it gives off energy.

Current A second condition needed in order for a current to flow is a path along which electrons can travel. Some materials are able to provide such a path, and others are not. Materials that permit a flow of electric current are said to be conductors. Those that block the flow of electric current are called nonconductors or insulators. The metal wire connecting the two battery poles in the example cited earlier provides a path for the movement of electrons from one pole of the battery to the other.

Electrons flow from one thing to another in a circuit. They are called a current when they flow. A circuit is a closed loop, it's made of stuff that can move the current.
