Answer: C. a parallel circuit


Step-by-step explanation:

In a simple parallel circuit, all components are connected between the same two sets of electrically common points such that they create multiple paths for electrons to flow from one end of the battery to the other.

Therefore, C is the right answer.

A circuit featuring multiple paths through which current can flow is best classified into the category of parallel circuit.
