Graphite is the mineral mixed with clay to make pencil lead. It provides the dark pigment needed for writing and drawing and is a popular choice for its smooth writing properties.
Graphite.
yes they are called pen pencil or mechanical pencil. you have to click it like a pen for the led to come out
a lot of people mistake it for led but it is in fact graphite
It does not have led it has graphite.
Yes, it just looked more like a block of wood with actual led in the pencil unlike now where only mixed materials are used in the process of pencil makeing none of which is led based. they actually had to wittle there own pencil but maybe you where lucky enough to find one or use someone elses. hope this helped answer your question. :)
Before the modern form of pencil we know today was developed, marks were made in wax with a sharp implement. Charcoal sticks or the burnt ends of sticks were sometimes used to mark with as well Eventually (some time in the 1500s) a natural deposit of Graphite was found in England. There was some confusion about what the graphite was and many thought it was a form of "lead." Which is where the term came from. These days the "lead" in your pencil is a combination of graphite and a clay binder. Please see the related link below. Also the expression "Lead in your pencil" is a euphemism for an erection.
The "lead" part of a pencil is made from a mixture of graphite and clay. Contrary to its name, there is actually no lead in pencils. Graphite is used because it creates a smooth mark on paper, while clay helps to bind the graphite together.

The "lead" is a mixture of GRAPHITE and CLAY. It is squirted out like spaghetti and baked hard.
