Explanation
In a parallel circuit, the voltage across each component is the same, but the current divides among the branches. Therefore, the current flowing through any single element is less than the total current from the source. Option D correctly reflects this behavior. Options A and B describe characteristics of series circuits, while option C is incorrect because the equivalent resistance in parallel is always less than the smallest individual resistor.
