In a series circuit, the current through each of the components is the same, and the voltage across the circuit is the sum of the voltages across each component. In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each of the components is the same, and the total current is the sum of the currents through each component.
Based on the above text, what's the best answer to this question: do the individual parallel lines in a parallel circuit have different currents flowing through them?
