Best Answer

Because electricity is flowing through it.

If you are referring to a light that turns on automatically at night and off in the day, this is usually done with an electronic switch controlled by a photocell. However some are controlled by electromechanical timers and involve no electronics at all.

Why does the brake light on the integra not light up when you turn on the light but it light up when you brake?

The Integra uses a dual-filament bulb in the tail light, which has one contact for the running light (the lights you turn on at night) and another brighter one for the brake light (only goes on when you press the brake pedal). You have replaced the bulb with the wrong type. You will need a 2057 bulb for the Integra.
