Which statement is true? a) when two resistors are connected in series, there is less total current in the circuit than if the two resistors were connected in parallel. b) when two resistors are connected in parallel, there is less total current in the circuit than if the two resistors were connected in series. c) the total current is the same regardless of if the two resistors are connected in series or in parallel.

Statement A is true.

When two resistors are connected in series, they result in an equivalent resistance greater than their individual values. A larger resistance causes lesser current to flow.

When two resistors are connected in parallel, they result in an equivalent resistance lesser than their individual values. A lesser resistance causes more current to flow.

So statement A is the correct answer. 
When two resistors are connected in series, there is less total current in the circuit than if the two resistors were connected in parallel.

Iwannasay c is the most accurate

The modern-day generator works on the principle of electromagnetic induction discovered by michael faraday in 1831-32. faraday discovered that the above flow of electric charges could be induced by moving an electrical conductor, such as a wire that contains electric charges, in a magnetic field.
