How many paths do electrons have
to choose from as they travel?
Which symbol is the electrical
energy source (energy cell)?
An electrical load uses electron
energy. How many electrical loads
are there?
Which one is the motor?
Which one is a light bulb?
Which one is a resistor?
What different devices do electrons
flow through in this electron path
(Circuit)?
Is there a switch in this circuit?
What are 2 the places in this circuit
that a switch could be placed in
order to turn every load on and off
at once?
What are two places that a switch
could be placed so that just the
motor and the resistor branch of
the circuit could be turned on and
off, leaving the light always on?
How could wires be added to make
electrons flow through these bulbs,
one after another in series?
How could wires be added to make
electrons flow through these bulbs,
on separate parallel branches?
How could wires be added to make
electrons flow through these bulbs,
one after another in series?
Which are series and which are
parallel circuits?
• Series circuit: when
electron go through
electrical loads, one
after another.
• Parallel circuit: when
the electron path
splits up and then
rejoins again before
going back to the
power source.
