Circuits

The picture shows an electrical circuit. This circuit is a series circuit because: 

• It has 3 light bulbs.
• The same current flows through all three light bulbs.
• It uses a single battery.
• The electrical current is divided between the three light bulbs.

If you replace the paper clip with a plastic spoon, what is the plastic spoon acting as?

• A conductor
• A diode
• An insulator
• A switch

Which statement is true?

• The light bulb will light up because the  circuit is complete.
• The light bulb will light up because the  circuit is broken.
• The light bulb will not light up because the  circuit is complete.
• The light bulb will not light up because the  circuit is broken.
