Current is the flow rate of charges through a surface area.
 The direction of the current is the direction of the flow of positive charges.

General vector definition
In some materials, the field applied and the current
density are proportional.

Resistivity is the inverse of conductivity.
 Both are intrinsic properties of the material.
 Resistance is a also a function of the shape and size of the device.

Current is the net rate of charge flow.
Electrons move at the drift velocity.
Resistance is the ratio of voltage applied to current. The ratio is linear for most metals.
 Resistivity is a material property.
 Electrical energy will be converted to thermal energy on a resistor. The rate of conversion is the power.
