How to tell if a circuit is connected in. a series. or parallel?

Series circuits split the voltage of resistors, so if you see several diodes connected in series or all next to each other, just a complete loop, it will be in series.

Parallel circuits split the current of resistors, so if you see several diodes connected along different branches or pathways, it will be in parallel.
