Correct Answer

D

Explanation

In homes, electrical appliances and lamps are connected in parallel because it allows each device to operate independently. When devices are connected in parallel, they are connected to the same voltage source, but each device has its own separate current path. This means that if one device fails or is turned off, the others can still function without any interruption. Additionally, connecting devices in parallel ensures that each device receives the same voltage, which is important for their proper operation.
