Define a series circuit
A circuit with only one pathway for the electrons to go through
Define a parallel circuit
A circuit with multiple pathways for the electrons to go through
Voltage in series circuits
Decreases after every resistor
Current in series circuits
Remains the same throughout the circuit
Resistance in series circuits
Adds up for each resistor on the circuit
Voltage in parallel circuits
Equal for resistors/lightbulbs at parallel
Current in parallel circuits
Change/splits up at intersections
Resistance in parallel circuits
Resistors in parallel have less of an effect because there are multiple pathways
Lightbulbs in series circuits
Will be equal but dimmer
Lightbulbs in parallel circuits
Will be equal and bright
