Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
A path that allows only one route for an electric current is called a ____
A
parallel circuit
B
switch
C
series circuit
D
resistor
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A series circuit has only one path for the current to flow through, whereas a parallel circuit has multiple paths.

Detailed explanation-2: -A “series” circuit has only one path for the electricity to follow.

Detailed explanation-3: -A series circuit’s defining characteristic is that all components in a series circuit have the same current flowing through them. There is only one path for the current to flow.

Detailed explanation-4: -Since there is only one path for electron flow in a series circuit, the current is the same magnitude at any point in the circuit. The total current in a series circuit is the same as the current through any resistance of the circuit.

Detailed explanation-5: -A circuit with only one path for electrons is a series circuit.
