A flow of electrons through a conductor is called:
A
A river
B
A spark
C
An electron flow
D
A current
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Electricity is the flow of electrons through a conductor, usually in the form of a wire, this flow is called an electric current.

Detailed explanation-2: -Electric current is flow of electrons in a conductor. The force required to make current flow through a conductor is called voltage and potential is the other term of voltage.

Detailed explanation-3: -The flow of electrons is termed electron current. Electrons flow from the negative terminal to the positive. Conventional currentor simply current, behaves as if positive charge carriers cause current flow.

Detailed explanation-4: -Electric current in conductors is produced due to the flow of electrons. Conventionally in an electric circuit, the direction of electric current is taken as the opposite direction of the flow of electrons.

Detailed explanation-5: -"The rate of flow of current in an electric circuit is called electric charge."
