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

What is a switch's function in a circuit?

• to make the current hotter or colder
• turn on and off the flow of current
• the pathway that current flows
• to add more power to the circuit

What is a Parallel circuit? 

• Has only one path 
• Has more than one path 
• Allows energy to travel through easily 
• Has only one light bulb

A material in which electrons are able to move easily

• Circuit
• Insulator 
• Resistance 
• Conductor

Which light will be brighter and why?

• Bulb A because its circuit is closed
• Bulb B because its circuit is closed
• Bulb B because it has more volts
• Bulb A because it has less volts

If bulb 1 burns out, what will occur?

• bulbs 2 and 3 will go out
• bulbs 2 and 3 receive more volts
• bulbs 2 and 3 will stay lit
• nothing will happen

The flow of electricity through a conductor is called...

• resistance
• voltage
• current
• source of electric current
