Circuits

Electricity that flows in a closed path is called a

• path

• current

• circuit.

In a series circuit if one bulb goes out:

• they all go out.

• the rest stay lit.

• half stay lit and half go out.

_______ stops the flow of electricity.

• Insulator

• Conductor

• Resistor

• Capacitor

To complete a circuit the switch must be

• unattached.

• open.

• closed.

What is a circuit with several paths for electricity to flow?

• conductor

• series circuit

• parallel circuit

• open circuit
