Sagot :
Answer:
1. A series circuit comprises a path along which the whole current flows through each component.
A parallel circuit comprises branches so that the current divides and only part of it flows through any branch.
2. Parallel circuits
Most standard 120-volt household circuits in your home are (or should be) parallel circuits. Outlets, switches, and light fixtures are wired in such a way that the hot and neutral wires maintain a continuous circuit pathway independent from the individual devices that draw their power from the circuit.
