Circuits and Cells

Would would best complete this circuit?

• A wire
• A switch
• A battery
• A light bulb

A flow of electrons through a conductor is called:

• A river
• A spark
• An electron flow
• A current

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.

What will happen if one light bulb is removed from this circuit?

• The other bulbs will go out.
• The other bulbs will stay on
• The other bulbs will get dimmer.
• The battery will become stronger.
