Plenary SciDo 1. Draw a series circuit with 2 lightbulbs, a battery and a resistor. c 2. Draw a series circuit with a battery, 2 lightbulbs, a switch, an ammeter and a variable resistor. 3. Draw a parallel circuit with 1 battery and 2 lightbulbs (each parallel to the battery). 4. Draw a series circuit with 1 battery, 1 diode, 1 variable resistor and a lightbulb. 5. Draw a series circuit with a battery, 1 resistor, 1 thermistor, 1 diode and a switch. 6. Draw a parallel circuit with 1 battery, 3 lightbulbs (each parallel to the battery) and a switch that would allow 1 lightbulb to shine even if it opened. (Hard) LO: I do We do You do Test
