I'm not sure, but I think that one f the lights would go out.....

Are street lights on a series circuit or a parallel circuit?
Parallel. One light burning out does not stop all current flow to the other lights.
How are parallel circuit lights better than series circuit lights using science facts?
In a parallel circuit, there are multiple paths for electricity to flow. So, if one switch is turned off there is still other paths for electricity to flow so the other lights can remain on. However, in a series circuit there is only one path for the electricity to travel. So, if the switch in a series circuit was turned off the electricity would stop flowing causing all the lights to go out.
What are the differences between series circuit lights and parallel circuit lights in terms of energy changes?
In a series circuit the lights share the voltage between them equally and the current stays the same throughout and if one bulb fuses the the other will not work. For the parallel, the voltage is the full voltage from the battery in all bulbs and the current is split between the different routes, and if one goes out the other one will stay lighten.
What happens to a parallel circuit if one light fails?
A parellel circuit does not fail if one light dies. In a series circuit, it's broken if one light fails (like the old style Christmas lights). See link for example...

Will lights in a series circuit will stay lit if one goes out?
Like the old Christmas tree lights, no; lights connected in series will not stay lit if one (or more) are either burned out or disconnected from the circuit. Lights in series are connected "head-to-tail". Take one out, and the circuit is incomplete and will not work.
Are fluorescent lights on a parallel circuit or a series circuit?
series circuit
What is the kind of circuit in which an electrical load may be disconnected without affecting other loads?
In a parallel circuit an electrical load may be disconnected without affecting other loads.
Which is better for making Christmas lights a series circuit or a parellel circuit?
Yes
If you remove one bulb from a string of lights all the remaining lights will go out. are the lights in a series circuit or parallel circuit Explain?
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.
Strings of Christmas lights were made of miniature lamps connected in series if one lamp is removed what would happen?
all the lights would go out which is why most new lights these days are wired in parallel or prevent that from happening and then you just replace the one bulb... some lights have both a series and parallel circuit in a complete light circuit. for example (A) the complete light circuit has 4 (B) series sections and with each series circuit you have a (C) parallel circuit... so when (A) is lit up and the 3rd section of (B) is lit up and one bulb is out you have a bulb failure in the (C) circuit and if the same scenario is there and the first bulb in the (b) section is out the entire (B) section would be out which is a series circuit failure. Hope this helps
Would you use Series or parallel circuit for Christmas 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.
What type of circuit off all lights when you take on bulb out?
If you remove one light from a chain of lights, and the other lights turn off, then it is a 'series' circuit.
Which light is not part of the primary series circuit?
obstruction lights
Which light is not a part of the primary series circuit?
Obstruction Lights
Why does removing one bulb from a string of lights in a series circuit cause all the lights to go out?
In a series circuit there is only one path through every component in the circuit. Breaking that path by removing a bulb will stop the current flow...all lights go out.
Electric lights will not come on unless their electrical circuit is a parallel circuit?
No, electric lights come in both parallel and series circuit.
