Answer:

Electrons would easily move through the person if there was no rubber around the wire.

Explanation:

The black rubber material is an insulator and will not allow the conduction of heat or electrical current through it. Electrical currents are generated by the movement of electrons through materials.

<em>Hence, if there was no rubber covering around the power cord, the person that plugged-in the power cord would have experienced electric shock because electrons would easily move through him/her from the wire. </em>

What are similarities between global warming and the greenhouse effect
n200080 [17]
The greenhouse effect is rightly called that because greenhouses allow heat to enter, but doesn't allow heat to leave, which warms plants.

On earth however, it's much bigger. Our own atmosphere acts similarly to this; it allows heat in, but doesn't allow it to leave which heats up the planet and causes global warming.
