- Fill in the blan,s with the correct answers.
1 % 66666666666666666666 is a source of electricity.
2 The 6666666666666666666 of a bulb lights up when electricity
5ows through it.
3 % 66666666666666666666 is used to complete or brea, a
circuit.
4 The bulb in a circuit becomes 66666666666666if we put in
more batteries.
