Which of the following is NOT a type of DC electrical circuit?

Resistive circuits are a term that typically refers to circuits where resistors control the flow of current, but the classification of circuits usually focuses on their configuration relative to voltage and current paths, such as series, parallel, and series-parallel.

In contrast, series circuits connect components end-to-end, allowing current to flow through one component before reaching the next. Parallel circuits provide multiple pathways for current to flow, which can sometimes affect the voltage across components. Series-parallel circuits are a combination of both configurations, allowing a more complex arrangement that can serve specific purposes in a system.

Since resistive circuits describe a property rather than a configuration or arrangement of the connections, it's categorized differently from the other types listed.
