The presenter uses a circuit with a fixed resistor and measures the resistance using a voltmeter and ammeter. She then adds a second resistor in series and calculates the total resistance of these resistors using an equation. She repeats the same process but adds the second resistor in parallel and notes the change in resistance. The conclusion is that adding resistors in series increases the total resistance of a circuit while adding resistors in parallel decreases it.\n
