Solution

The correct option is A
True

In series circuit elements are connected end to end and thus the same current passes through all the elements. There is no alternate path available for current.
But in parallel combination, elements are not connected end to end. More than one element can be connected from one end of the element therefore current has multiple paths to travel in the circuit.
