How many battery cells make up a battery pack?

A battery module in a battery pack consists of several battery cells in parallel. If there is no difference among battery cells, a battery pack can be considered as having many battery cells in total, with a high voltage and large capacity.

Does a battery pack work in parallel or in series?
