Conventional current in a circuit is defined to flow in which direction?

1. In metal wires the moving charges are actually electrons, which are negative. 2. Conventional current is nonetheless defined by convention as the direction a positive charge would flow. 3. This makes conventional current run opposite to the actual direction electrons drift in a metal wire. 4. The option describing positive-charge-flow direction is therefore the correct definition, not the electron-drift or ground-based options. _Source: OpenStax Physics (CC BY 4.0), Ch 19 "Electrical Circuits", section Direct and Alternating Current_
