An ammeter is connected in series in a circuit because it measures the electric current flowing through the circuit. In a series connection, the same current flows through all components.
An ammeter has very low resistance, so it does not significantly change the current flowing through the circuit.
Therefore, an ammeter is connected in series to measure the current accurately.
