Identify if it’s a series or parallel connection.

1. No matter how many loads you added in it, the current in each load would still be equal to the total current.
2. Each load contributes to the total resistance in a circuit.
3. The total current in the circuit is shared by each load.
4. The more load you added to the circuit, the lesser the total resistance will be.
5. The total voltage in the circuit is shared by each load.
6. No matter how many loads you added in a parallel circuit, the voltage in each load would still be equal to the voltage.

Final answer:

In a parallel connection, each load has the same voltage and the current is divided between the loads. In a series connection, the current is the same in each load but the voltage is divided between the loads.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a parallel connection, each load has the same voltage and the current is divided between the loads, depending on their resistance.

In a series connection, the current is the same in each load, but the voltage is divided between the loads.

Based on the given statements, statements 1, 2, 4, and 5 describe a parallel connection, while statements 3 and 6 describe a series connection.
