If the wire is cut at the position marked by an X, how many bulbs will remain lit?

• 0
• 1
• 2
• 3

Look at the circuit below. Which statement explains why the bulbs are not lighting up?

• The bulbs are not part of the circuit and need to be connected.
• The battery is incorrectly connected to the circuit.
• The circuit needs more wires to connect both bulbs.
• A switch needs to be added to control the current.
