The word 'lighting' is the present participle, present tense of the verb to light. The present participle of the verb also functions as an adjective and a gerund (verbal noun).

Examples:

They're lighting the campfire to roast marshmallows. (verb)

The lighting installation will be completed today. (adjective)

The lighting is very poor in this room. (noun)

A pronoun is a word that takes the place of a noun in a sentence.

Example: The lighting is very poor in this room. It isn't a suitable place to study. (the pronoun 'it' takes the place of the noun 'lighting' in the second sentence)
