Answer:
A dry cell is an electric cell which contains chemicals in the form of a paste.
i) The metal cap at its top acts as the positive terminal.
ii) The outermost part of the dry cell is a zinc case. The bottom of the zinc case acts as the negative terminal.
iii) From the base of the metal cap, a carbon rod runs down the cell.
iv) The carbon rod is surrounded by a mixture of powdered manganese dioxide and carbon.
v) This is further surrounded by a paste of ammonium chloride.
When the two terminals of the dry cell are connected, electric current flows through the wire because of the reaction taking place inside it.
