Were I in school now, I'd kick my physics teacher's behind for
putting this question in a physics context, because it doesn't test
knowledge of Ohm's law, but e.g. how to make the most complicated
drawing of three resistors connected in parallel, or one's quality of
two-dimensional imagination.
Shrouding a simple question in obfuscating words equally deserves
some vicious kicks in the sitting place. A physics or electronics test
should be just that and not one of semantic ability.
