G5 - Series and Parallel Circuit - Activity 11

Current divides when it reaches each branch

• Series Circuit

• Parallel Circuit

Current flows on the same path

• Series Circuit

• Parallel Circuit

If one device in a breaks, it will not affect the rest of the devices from working

• Series Circuit

• Parallel Circuit

There is only one pathway

• Series Circuit

• Parallel Circuit

Adding branches does not affect the current available for each branch

• Series Circuit

• Parallel Circuit

The amount of current for each device decreases as more devices are added

• Series Circuit

• Parallel Circuit

There can be many pathways

• Series Circuit

• Parallel Circuit

If one device breaks, the whole circuit will not work

• Series Circuit

• Parallel Circuit

Current moves through one device and then through the next

• Series Circuit

• Parallel Circuit

The current is split into separate paths
