19. M AKE A D RAWING WITH L ABELS C REATE A DRAWING TO INCLUDE EVERYTHING YOU WOULD NEED TO MAKE A LIGHT - BULB LIGHT OR A RADIO WORK. L ABEL YOUR DRAWING AND USE ARROWS TO SHOW THE DIRECTION OF THE CURRENT. D ESCRIBE HOW THE CIRCUIT WORKS. W RITE TO E XPLAIN A CLASSMATE IS STUDYING A CORD THAT CONNECTS A LAMP TO A WALL OUTLET. T HE CLASSMATE SEES THAT THE INSIDE OF THE CORD IS MADE OF METAL WIRE, AND THAT THE OUTSIDE OF THE CORD IS MADE OF PLASTIC. E XPLAIN WHY EACH OF THESE MATERIALS IS USED IN THE CORD.
