The Circuits
  1. Insulator
    1. Conductor
      1. Open Circuit
        1. When the switch in a circuit is open the circuit is not complete.
          1. Electric charges cannot flow so the light stays off.
        2. Closed Circuit
          1. When the switch is closed the circuit is complete.
            1. Electric charges can flow through it to light up the bulb.
          2. Parallel Circuit
            1. If one part of the parallel circuit breaks, only that part only that part stops working.
            2. Series Circuit
              1. If one light bulb in a series circuit burns out, all of the lights go out, because the circuit is broken.
