Solution
A combination of two or more cells is called a battery.
Explanation:
When multiple cells are connected together, either in series or parallel, they form a battery. A series combination increases the voltage, while a parallel combination increases the capacity (or current supply). A battery provides the electrical energy needed to power devices.
