When a circuit is arranged in parallel:

Question

Choose one • 2 points

There is only one path the electrons can take through the circuit, and they must pass through all circuit components.

There are multiple paths the electrons can take through the circuit, and it is possible for the electron to pass through one circuit component but not another.

Answer 1

The correct statement is:

There are multiple paths the electrons can take through the circuit, and it is possible for the electron to pass through one circuit component but not another.

In a parallel circuit arrangement, each component is connected across the same voltage source, allowing electrons multiple paths to flow through.
