  5) the power company.
  6) the electrical outlet.
  7) atoms in the bulb filament.
  8) the wires leading to the lamp.

Question 2

A bird sitting on a bare high-voltage wire is not electrocuted because
 
  1) of the high resistance of its body.
  2) of no electrical potential difference across its body.
  3) its body is at a low electric potential compared to the wire.
  4) the high voltage across its feet produces a very small current.
 
  If the bird stood on the wire with only one foot, it would
  5) be electrocuted.
  6) remain unharmed.
