Question

A major advantage of parallel circuits over series circuit is that: Select one:a.parallel circuits allow for many different appliances or loads to be used independently b.parallel circuits provide the same current to all the loadsc.parallel circuits are often found in strands of holiday lights d.parallel circuits are simpler to construct

Answer 1

A parallel circuit is a type of electrical circuit that has a number of different paths for current to flow through. If you wanted to pass through every component in a parallel circuit you would have to travel down every separate branch. In a parallel circuit if one component fails the electrical circuit may still function as the current has other paths

From the options:

b is false

c is false

d is not necessarily true

Therefore, the answer is a
