Displacement current concept

Displacement current is same as:
conduction current due to flow of free electron
conduction current due to flow of positive ions
conduction current due to flow of both positive and negative free charge carriers
is not a conduction current but is caused by time varying electric field

Solution:

Displacement current represents the rate of change of electric displacement field and is not caused by real movement of charges like conduction current.
