Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
In a series circuit, there is only one path. If a break occurs anywhere in the path, the entire circuit will fail.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The standard unit of measurement of electrical current is the ampere (A), where 1A is equivalent to 6.25  1018 electrons passing a point in 1 second. The term coulomb is used as a shorthand no-tation for 6.25  1018 electrons. The standard unit of measurement for voltage is the volt (V). A milliampere is equal to 0.001 A.
