1) a) Describe the circuit that you would build so that the circuit has the minimum possible current drawn from the battery.  
    b) What is the value of that minimum current?

2) a) Describe the circuit that you would build so that the circuit has the maximum possible current drawn from the battery.
    b) What is the value of that maximum current?
