What is one problem with using a series circuit?
It has a lot of series.
If one light goes down, they all go down!
It doesn't work properly.
There are no problems.
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 has more than one path to flow through
Which best describes a parallel circuit?
Electricity flows along one pathway.
The flow of electricity comes from one source.
Electricity flows along more than one pathway.
The flow of electricity comes from more than one source.
