Turning off one light in a parallel circuit will not affect the others as each light has its own separate pathway to the power source. The other lights will continue to function independently of the one that was turned off.
The other light bulb still continues to shine if one light bulb is taken out of a parallel circuit. In a series circuit if one light bulb is removed the other light bulb goes black. This happens because the circuit is incomplete.
When you unscrew a light bulb in a series circuit, the circuit will break and all the other light bulbs in the circuit will turn off. This is because in a series circuit, the current flows through each component in succession, so removing one component interrupts the flow of current to the rest of the circuit.
When you turn off a light, you are breaking the circuit that allows electricity to flow through the light bulb, causing the light bulb to turn off. The electricity in the circuit is still present and will continue to flow until the power source is disconnected or turned off.
parallel circuit: Providing that the breakage does not result in a short circuit the other bulbs will still light. series circuit: If the breakage results in a short circuit through the bulb the other bulbs will light more brightly. If the breakage results in a breakage of the connection through the bulb then the other bulbs will not light.
If you unscrew a light bulb in a series circuit, it will cause an open circuit, which will break the flow of current in the circuit. As a result, all other bulbs in the series circuit will also turn off because there is no longer a complete path for the electricity to flow.
Parallel circuit.
It is very beneficial to have a parallel circuit... for example: 1. If one light in a parallel circuit goes out, the other light bulbs will remain lit Whereas if a light in a series circuit goes out, all bulbs will go out 2. If not all light bulbs are needed on, you can turn them off with the remaining light bulbs staying on
If you have a 3 bulbs in parallel lets say. If one of those burns out it just means that there is now an open circuit where the burned out bulb used to be. The two that remain aren't aware that anything has changed.
pushing the button changes the circuit from a series circuit to a parallel circuit.

No, they do not. Think of it this way. Your house is one huge parallel circuit. Not every branch is on all the time. You turn switches on and off to turn individual branches on and off at will.
When you turn on a light switch you do not have an open circuit.
When you turn off a light, you are breaking the circuit that allows electricity to flow through the light bulb, causing the light bulb to turn off. The electricity in the circuit is still present and will continue to flow until the power source is disconnected or turned off.
The circuit will stop working once turn off a flashlight.
The advantages of parallel circuits are that if one component, e.g. light bulb fails, the other ones will keep functioning. The problem with series circuits are that if one light bulb fails, the others are also affected.
