    If a group of lights on your car all go out at one time, and your fuse isn't blown, the most likely reason would be:

    • The lights are wired in a parallel circuit, so if one light burns out, they all go out.

    • The lights are wired in a series-parallel circuit, so if one light burns out, they all go out.

    • The lights are wired in a series circuit, so if one light burns out, they all go out.

    • The lights are wired in a closed circuit, so if one light burns out, they all go out.

    Correct Answer
    A. The lights are wired in a series circuit, so if one light burns out, they all go out.
    Explanation
    The correct answer is that the lights are wired in a series circuit, so if one light burns out, they all go out. In a series circuit, the components are connected in a single path, so the current flows through each component one after the other. If one light burns out and breaks the circuit, the current cannot flow through the other lights, causing them all to go out.
