1. Circuits

2. Electric Current
When electrons move through a conductor it is called an electric current Some electric currents flow on a path called an electric circuit

3. Electric Circuit
The two basic pathways traveled in an electrical circuit are…
Series Circuit
Parallel Circuit

4. Series Circuit
In a series circuit there is only one possible pathway that connects all components in a circuit. If the circuit is broken none of the components will receive electrical current.

5. Parallel Circuit
In a parallel circuit there is more than one possible pathway that connects all components in a circuit. If the circuit is broken some of the components may still receive electrical current.
