A closed loop through which electric current can flow

Real World Example

Imagine you're trying to figure out why your favorite gadget isn't working, only to realize that the batteries are inserted the wrong way. Just like the gadget needs a complete and correctly oriented path for power to flow and function, an electric circuit requires a closed loop for electric current to circulate effectively. In this analogy, the correctly inserted batteries represent the power source, the gadget itself symbolizes the circuit components, and the path through which the electricity travels is analogous to the closed loop essential for the circuit to operate.
