No the above is a series circuit it would also need a ballast resistor so not to cook your LED's.
This is a parallel circuit-

It is best to give each LED its own resistor.(not shown)
For some reason when I click save it removes the spaces, ASCII characters have never been good for representing circuit diagrams.

∙ 9y agoDraw two resistors side by side and connect the adjacent ends together. Connect a wire to each junction. That is a parallel circuit, and if a voltage is applied, that voltage appears across each resistor and the total current is the sum of the two currents.

∙ 9y agoTake two electrical devices that require the same voltage potential. Connect the two hot wires together. Connect the two neutral wires together. Apply the required voltage to the two tied together ends. Now these two electrical devices are operating in parallel.

∙ 14y ago1). Identify the two points between which you want a parallel circuit.
2). Connect a resistor or other impedance between those two points.
3). Repeat Step-2. You now have a parallel circuit between the two points.
Step-2 may be repeated as many times as desired.

What are the two kinds of electrical circuit?
There are four types of circuit: series, parallel, series-parallel, and complex.
How is a series circuit and a parallel circuit like their circuit names?
A series circuit is actually in series, but a parallel circuit, is Parallel
Which circuit has different parts of the circuit on separate branches?
Any circuit that even has more than one branch is a parallel one.
Would a bedroom be wired using a series circuit or a parallel circuit?
A parallel circuit
Can each branch in a parallel circuit may hold several resistors?
Yes, but then it would be a 'series-parallel' circuit, not a 'parallel' circuit!

Which circuit has different parts of the circuit on separate branches?
Any circuit that even has more than one branch is a parallel one.
Is the electric circuit in your home a series circuit or a parallel circuit?
Parallel.
What type of circuit are there?
parallel circuit / series circuit / and a short circuit
What type of circuit has more than one circuit on a wire a series circuit or a parallel circuit?
A parallel circuit is :)
A circuit that has two or more branches for electrons to follow is a?
parallel circuit.
Would a bedroom be wired using a series circuit or a parallel circuit?
A parallel circuit
How many paths does a parallel circuit have?
a parallel circuit has 2 or more paths.a series circuit has 1 path.a parallel circuit is better for homes and school
Each branch in a parallel circuit may hold several resistors yes or no?
No. What you are describing is a series-parallel circuit, not a parallel circuit.
Can each branch in a parallel circuit may hold several resistors?
Yes, but then it would be a 'series-parallel' circuit, not a 'parallel' circuit!
What is the hypothesis for parallel circuits?
Using a parallel circuit energy can be transferred through a parallel circuit.
