Best Answer

A light bulb is a source of electric light.

In an incandescent light bulb, the glass bulb forms a protective shield around a glowing filament.

The air inside the glass bulb is removed, or replaced with an inert gas.

Electric current is passed through a thin metal filament (usually tungsten), which causes it to glow white hot, giving out light.

The protective bulb stops the filament from burning up, as it has no Oxygen.
