This looks like a question from a student's coursework. It is impossible to answer without seeing the circuit diagram(s) that the question is asking about.
An actual diagram is needed to show which components are in parallel and which are in series.
If you want someone else to do your homework for you, you will either have to find out how to attach a Related Link to this question, going to a separate web page which shows the diagram(s), or - much better - read your course materials and answer this question all by yourself. Doing the work yourself is the only way to really learn this technical stuff!

What is a circuit with two or more branches for current to flow called?
Parallel circuit
How many paths can electricity flow through a parallel circuit?
As many paths as there are branches in the circuit
How many paths in a Parallel circuit?
a parallel circuit can have 2 or more paths for electricity to flow through
Why must a circuit be closed in order for a current to flow?
A circuit must be closed in order for a current to flow because it helps keep a current flow pass. When the switch is closed on a circuit there is a constant flow. When the switches open the flow is disturbed around the circuit.
How many paths through which charge can flow be shown in a circuit diagram of a series circuit?
Only one path
How many paths are there for current flow in a series circuit?
one
How the current flow in parallel connection?
In a parallel circuit, the current flow is independent in each branch.
Do aparallel circuit contanins two or more electrical paths for current to flow?
yes
What is a circuit with two or more branches for current to flow called?
Parallel circuit
How many paths can electricity flow through a parallel circuit?
As many paths as there are branches in the circuit
Is corrosion in a circuit result in a direct current flow?
As the circuit collects moisture and dirt leakage path are formed around the paths causing eventual circuit failures
What circuit is it when electrical current has two or more paths to follow?
A circuit in which electricity only flows in one path is called a series circuit.
Series circuit is a circuit that has only one path for volage flow?
No, that is a paralel circuit. a series circuit has two paths
How many paths in a Parallel circuit?
a parallel circuit can have 2 or more paths for electricity to flow through
What circuit is a circuit in which electrical current has more than one path to follow?
A circuit that has more than one path for the current to flow is a parallel circuit. The circuit must have two or more paths to be considered parallel. A circuit that has only one current path through multiple components is a series circuit.
In a parallel ac circuit is the current additive?
Yes In parallel circuit , current entering into the circuit will be divided intodifferent paths ( resistances) . Amount of current flow depends upon the magnitude of resistance applied in the circuit. Total current after passing through the circuit will be the sum of all current through each resistance.
What is the difference between a series electric circuit?
A series circuit is a circuit that only has one path for current to flow on, a parallel circuit is a circuit that has multiple paths for current to flow on. Parallel circuits are mostly used, especially in your house/home. The reason of that is because, if a device in a series circuit electrically malfuctions or goes down, it will stop the current flow, thus ending and cuting the whole rest of the circuit. In a Parallel circuit, if a device electrically goes down, current will still be able to flow through the other circuit branches, and the rest of the circuit, thus keeping electricity flowing.
