Answer the following question given this paragraph: 

Electrical energy is transmitted by moving electrons in an electric current. In order to travel, electric current needs matter. It cannot pass through empty space. However, matter resists the flow of electric current. That’s because flowing electrons in current collide with particles of matter, which absorb their energy. Some types of matter offer more or less resistance to electric current than others.


Q: What is transmitted by moving electrons in an electric current?


A:
electrical energy
