A series circuit has one path from the source and back to the source again. *1 pointTrueFalse

The statement is True.

Explanation:

In a series circuit, all components (like resistors, capacitors, etc.) are connected end-to-end, forming a single path for the electric current to flow. This means that the current that passes through each component is the same, and if any one component fails (like a broken light bulb), it interrupts the entire circuit, stopping the flow of electricity.

In contrast, a parallel circuit has multiple paths for the current to flow. Nevertheless, series circuits are foundational in understanding basic electrical principles, as the behavior of the circuit can often be analyzed using Ohm's Law and Kirchhoff's laws. The simplicity of a single loop makes series circuits easier to analyze for total voltage, current, and resistance, but they lack the redundancy found in parallel circuit designs, which allows other pathways for current to continue flowing.
