Answer
I agree with all of your answers except:
2-D  V=5*1.5V=7.5V
9-C  Electrons are not easily removed from a conductor
11-B No Diagram, but generally transistors are current amplifying devices.
16A The total current will be I=V/R=40V/3ohms=13.1A, the small proportion of the current will flow through teh larger resistance device in parallel. 3/12*13.3A=3.33A
18-? Diagram required
23-A Holes behave like positive charges and will be attracted to the negative end of a battery.
24-A A full wave rectifier will only allow curent to flow in one direction, but will not smooth out the current. That requires other circuit elements such as capacitors, inductors and voltage regulators.
25-D Clockwise if the current is conventional, Counter-clockwise if the current is electrons.
