I have read in the internet that the charges do not have any other path to go and they must go through the same in a series circuit,hence the current is same.
It was quite convincing but what confused me was: "A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that implements electrical resistance as a circuit element. Resistors act to reduce current flow..."(according to the Wikipedia). This means that the resistors slow down the rate of flow of charges. By definition, electric current is the rate of flow of charges. Then must not the current be reduced in a resistor even when the amount of charge is same?
