I think the correct answer would be t<span>he other light bulbs remain on and will be equally bright. Since they are in parallel, only the circuit for the one that is removed would be affected the other will still shine bright equally. Hope this answers the question.</span>

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>The correct option is</u><u> (B)The other light bulbs remain on and will be equally bright. </u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

When load is connected in parallel, the circuit is completed in many ways. Each loop completes the circuit and the voltage remains the same in each loop. If one of the bulb is removed, the rest of the bulbs will still glow and the circuit will be still completed in the rest of the loops. The same will happen in the case of Jerry and Ben.
