Is a house direct or alternating current?

The current flowing in a normal household lighting electric bulb is AC. DC systems are just a fraction of 1% in ordinary household systems.The current flowing in a flashlight bulb is Direct Current (DC) if the flashlight runs on batteries.

. . . then that would be alternating current, or simply, 'AC'.


Does current depend upon the number of flowing electrons or energy of elecrons?

"energy of elecrons" - I guess you mean of *electrons*. Current is the measure of the number of electrons flowing past a point: one amp of current is about 6.2415093×1018 electrons per second


How does alternating current flow from the negative pole to the positive pole if its constantly alternating?

Think of the wire as being full of electrons (atoms contain electrons). The electrons aren't actually flowing, they are vibrating back and forth. This extremely fast alternation of back and forth movement is an agitation that is great enough to create heat and light in, for example a light bulb filament.
