CAN ANYONE EXPLAIN ME THAT WHAT HAPENS TO THE ELECTRON IN THE FLOW OF ELECTRICITY WHEN THE ELECTRON COMES TO THE POSITIVE TERMINAL?

when the electron reaches positive tereminal it passes its energy to another electron that is in front of it to continue the flow of current[that is flow of charge] from this we can say that electron will loose its energy on reaching positve terminal.

An electron in en electric circuit continues to flow in the direction opposite to the flow of current no matter whether it is coming out of -ve terminal or entering into +ve. The electron entering into the +ve terminal cannot be distinguished from the electron coming out of the terminal because of "PRINCIPLE OF INDISTINGUISHABILITY" according to which quantum particles such as electrons cannot be distinguished from other electrons as all are having identical mass, charge, spin or other physical parameter associated with them.
