It is not the "opposite" but the major alternative to parallel, which is a series circuit. In parallel circuits, each component has its own circuit path (input to output), while in series the components are connected to one another in a line.

Does a parallel circuit have more than 1 resistor?

Parallel circuits normally have more than one resistor. Basically parallel circuits are circuits where the current has more than path to follow. However, there are parallel circuits where there are two switches rather than two resistors.

What is the opposite of series?

The term "series" (a set of values or events) does not have a direct opposite, except possibly the phrase "isolated instance" which is a single occurrence. In electrical circuits, "parallel" can be considered the opposite (different) way of wiring a circuit, with series being consecutive connections while parallel connections are simultaneous and separate.


Do bedrooms have parallel or series circuits?

How does increasing the number of parallel circuits affect the voltage in an electrical system?

Increasing the number of parallel circuits in an electrical system does not affect the voltage. Voltage remains constant across all parallel circuits in the system.
