Which statement correctly describes the current in a circuit that is made up of any two resistors connected in series with a battery
a. the current in the battery is less than the current in either resistor.
b. the current in the battery equals the product of the currents in the resistors.
c. the current in the battery equals the sum of the currents in the resistors.
d. the current in the battery and in each resistor is the same

D.The current in the battery and in each resistor is the same

Explanation:

In a series circuit, all the components of the circuit are connected in the same branch of the circuit - this means that the current flowing through each component is the same. Therefore, the current in the battery is equal to the current flowing through each resistor.

The total resistance of a series of n resistors is given by the sum of the individual resistances:

On the contrary, when the components are connected in parallel to the battery, then each of them has the same voltage of the battery, but not the same current.
