An electrical circuit must be complete i.e it must form a closed loop,for it to work. Current only flow if the circuit is complete. A complete circuit is one that consist of a Voltage source, a consumer like a bulb and conductors. The conductor then connects the consumer and the voltage source together forming a closed loop.

If AC is replaced by DC in a fluorescent lamp circuit will the circuit work?
No.
Is a switch needed to make a circuit work?
Not always. Depends on the circuit.
How does a broken wire affect a series circuit?
because the circuit is not a full circuit so it wont work!
What cause a series circuit to work and not work?
A series circuit will work if there is a closed path through which the current can pass, and a voltage source. Otherwise it won't.
