How does a switch work in a circuit to control the flow of electricity?

A switch in a circuit works by opening or closing a pathway for electricity to flow. When the switch is closed, it completes the circuit and allows electricity to flow through. When the switch is open, it breaks the circuit and stops the flow of electricity. This control of the flow of electricity allows the switch to turn devices on and off in a circuit.
