Conventional current flows from the positive terminal to the negative termina.The discovery of the electron, however, made people realise that electricity is the flow of electrons, which are negatively charged. The field of electrics was already set up for the flow of "positive charge" and since it make no difference on circuit analysis, the original direction was was renamed as 'conventional current'

Answer:
The direction of flow of positive charges.
Explanation:
The direction of flow of positive charges were taken as the flow of electric current. It is from the positive terminal of the battery/cell to the negative terminal through the circuit. Conventionally in the earlier times, only positive terminals were believed to exist. Thus, direction of flow of positive charge was taken as the direction of electric current.
Hope it helps. Pls rate and mark me as the brainliest (only if I could b of some help) <3
