If one of the resistors is turned off (I.e. , a light bulb goes out), what happens to the other resistors (light bulbs) in the circuit? Do they remain on? (I.e., lit)?

Answer:

No, they don't remain on because If any of bulbs in a series circuit is turned off from its socket, then it is observed that the other bulbs immediately go out. In order for the devices in a series circuit to work, each device must work. If one goes out, they all go out.
