In a parallel circuit, different components are connected on different branches of the wire., In a series circuit, all the components come one after another on the same branch., In a series circuit if one component breaks, the whole circuit stops working., In a parallel circuit if one component breaks the components on other branches can still work., Series circuits are useful as they don't use as much wire., Parallel circuits are used in homes so other appliances work even if one breaks.,
