Parallel Circuits Share Voltage Equally

Steps:

• Identify circuit types: series connects resistors end-to-end; parallel connects across same two points.
• Recall parallel rules: total voltage from supply applies equally across each branch per Kirchhoff's voltage law.
• Check choices: A misstates current (divides in parallel); B and D confuse voltage behavior; C matches parallel voltage equality.
• Confirm series contrast: current same, but voltage divides by resistance ratios via Ohm's law (V = IR).

Why C is correct:

• In parallel, all resistors connect to the same voltage source, so voltage drop is identical across each by definition of parallel paths.

Why the others are wrong:

• A: Current divides inversely with resistance in parallel, not the same.
• B: Voltage is the same, not different, in parallel.
• D: Voltage divides proportionally in series based on resistance values.

Final answer: C
