are to reisistors considered in series if inbetween them is there is a wire supplying a current source not from the battery.


for example if there was a wire giong up from point A to B and in that wire, there was a current source.

A-----^^^(R1)----B----^^^(R2)

No, they would not be in series if I interpret your question right. Remember that the definition of resistors in series is that they all share the same current.
