Hi YulianM,

Basically, series and parallel circuits are different ways of arranging electrical circuits. Series circuits have all the elements of the circuit connected to on another. An example is Christmas lights, when one light goes out, all the lights go out. In parallel circuits, the elements of the circuit are connected on different branches, not all in a row.

Here's a link for more information: http://www.bbc.co.uk/bitesize/ks3/scien ... evision/4/

Hope this helps,
