A parallel circuit usually has 2 or more paths to take that the electrons can follow.
"A. There is more than one path for the electrons to take" is the closest answer to that.
B is not an answer because a parallel circuit can have more than 1 power source.
C isn't one because that would be a completely different circuit.
D can be the answer but it wouldn't be my first choice.
Hope this helped!
