Best Answer

a battery has potential ( voltage). without a circuit atatched to it nothing happens. But when used in an electic ciruit, like with a light bulb, current will flow(amps). current flow is what causes your light bulb to light. A battery has the pressure (voltage) so to speak to cause current flow. Generally, current flows from negative to positive ina complete circuit.
