Removing any bulb breaks the continuity of a series circuit, stopping the flow of electrical current. Removing a bulb in a parallel circuit does not interrupt the current flow, so the remaining lights continue to conduct electrical current.
In series
A parallel circuit lights up even when one bulb is out.

Parallel connections will draw more current than equivalent lights connected in series, so the parallel configuration will be brighter.
A parallel circuit is best because if one light goes out the others remain lit.
Two receptacles on a branch circuit, each in parallel, both in series with the circuit breaker. The blower motor, ignition transformer, and oil solenoid on an oil burner, each in parallel, all in series with the acquastat (water temperature control switch).
No, electric lights come in both parallel and series circuit.

My dad created a parallel circuit when he plugged in the Christmas lights.
Parallel. One light burning out does not stop all current flow to the other lights.
Christmas tree lights, this parallel circuit prevents one bulb failure from turning off the whole string of lights.
Yes you would use a serial circuit You would use parallel circuit lights for a Christmas tree because if you used series circuit lights, and one of the bulb blows, the rest of the bulbs will go out. But with parallel circuit lights, if one bulb blows the rest of the bulbs will remain their brightness.
A parallel circuit lights up even when one bulb is out.
To design a circuit so that lights can be turned on and off separately, we connect the circuit in parallel.
A parallel circuit. All the lights are connected in parallel across the power source.
Generally in a parallel circuit

In a series circuit, if any one bulb goes open the rest of the lights will go out. The current flow in a series circuit is common throughout the whole circuit. In a parallel circuit when one bulb goes open the rest remain on due to the configuration of a parallel circuit.
