Anything less dense than water will float, like oil. Anything more dense than water will sink, like rock.
Current is created when charges are quickened by an electric field to move where the position of lower temperature. An electric current is a stream of electric charge. In electric circuits, this charge is regularly conveyed by moving electrons in a wire.
Parallel circuits allow current to flow even if some paths are cut, because a parallel circuit has more than one current-carrying path through it.
