Series Circuit A circuit in which the loads are connected end to end so that there is only one path for electrons to flow.

Parallel Circuit A circuit in which the loads are connected by branches so that there are two or more paths for electrons to flow. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D2monVkCkX4&feature=rellist&playnext=1&list=PL_OYJQ4ZWNBVZ6VUF41XPMTEAZQO8TNV- (8:00 overview and series and parallel – very good)
