What do you call an applicator that directs electric current from the machine to the client's skin?

  1. Conductor

  2. Transmitter

  3. Electrode

  4. Capacitor

The correct answer is: Electrode

An electrode is the best term for an applicator that directs electric current from the machine to the client's skin. A conductor generally refers to a material or substance that allows electricity to flow through it, rather than an object that directs the current. A transmitter is typically used to send or broadcast signals, not to direct electric current. A capacitor is a device used to store electrical charge, not necessarily to transmit or direct it. Therefore, the most appropriate term for this scenario is electrode.
