The function of an LDR or light dependent resistor is to change the brightness of the light based weather conditions or light hitting the object the LDR is on. When it is darker out, the light does not shine as brightly.
No it depends on voltage and circuit resistance and other physical parameter which affect the properties of component used in circuitry like - temperature pressure humidity light(in light sensitive circuit- LDR photo diode,photo transistor,) and other.
An LDR is a light dependent resistor, which is usually used to detect light levels, either ambient or reflected. The LDR works because incoming light carries energy, which can elevate the energy levels of electrons in a suitable medium to join the 'conduction band' which means that there are more charge carriers in the LDR, and hence the cell has lower resistance.

To provide electricity for the bulb to light up.
A fractor is a circuit component that has both the function of resistor and capacitor.

The decrease of light intensity on an LDR will cause the resistance of the LDR to increase, which will result in a decrease in current flow through the circuit. As a result, the ammeter reading will decrease.
An LDR is a 'light-dependant resistor'. It's one of the devices sometimes called "photocells", but the LDR doesn't generate anything. It only changes resistance depending on the intensity and wavelength of the illumination falling on it. The simplest application would be in a circuit that switches something on or off to correspond with daylight and darkness. Somewhat fancier applications might include ... -- monitor a light beam across the door of a store, to ring a bell when a customer walks in; -- detect the audio carried on an amplitude-modulated light beam.
LDRs are normally found in Light/Dark sensing circuits
yes the ldr can be connected in a paralell circuit as i have done a experiment about te ldrs

An LED is an electircal component which converts electrical energy into light energy whereas an LDR uses light to complete the circuit and maintain the flow of current.
Working of light dependent resistor This circuit explains the principle of operation of LDR (light dependence resistor). The circuit has various applications like shadow alarm, automatic night/morning lamp. LDR, an acronym for light dependent resistor is a resistor whose resistance is dependent on light. The resistance of LDR is of the order of Mega Ohms in the absence of light and reduces to a few ohms in presence of light. In this circuit when the light falls on LDR, the resistance of LDR becomes low and the entire voltage drop takes place across the variable resistance VR1 (10K). As a result the base of transistor (T1) gets high input and it gets biased thereby glowing the LED. When no light falls on LDR, the resistance of LDR becomes high so almost entire voltage drop takes place across it and the base of transistor is at low potential. So transistor does not gets biased nor it becomes conducting, hence switching off the LED. The sensitivity of the circuit can be adjusted by varying the preset VR1.

A Light Dependent Resistor (aka LDR, photoconductor, or photocell) is a device which has a resistance which varies according to the amount of light falling on its surface.A typical light dependent resistor is pictured above together with (on the right hand side) its circuit diagram symbol. Different LDR's have different specifications, however the LDR's we sell in the REUK Shop are fairly standard and have a resistance in total darkness of 1 MOhm, and a resistance of a couple of kOhm in bright light (10-20kOhm @ 10 lux, 2-4kOhm @ 100 lux).Uses for Light Dependent ResistorsLight dependent resistors are a vital component in any electric circuit which is to be turned on and off automatically according to the level of ambient light - for example, solar powered garden lights, and night security lighting. An LDR can even be used in a simple remote control circuit using the backlight of a mobile phone to turn on a device - call the mobile from anywhere in the world, it lights up the LDR, and lighting (or a garden sprinkler) can be turned on remotely!Light Dependent Resistor CircuitsThere are two basic circuits using light dependent resistors- the first is activated by darkness, the second is activated by light. The two circuits are very similar and just require an LDR, some standard resistors, a variable resistor (aka potentiometer), and any small signal transistor In the circuit diagram above, the LED lights up whenever the LDR is in darkness. The 10K variable resistor is used to fine-tune the level of darkness required before the LED lights up. The 10K standard resistor can be changed as required to achieve the desired effect, although any replacement must be at least 1Kto protect the transistor from being damaged by excessive current.By swapping the LDR over with the 10K and 10K variable resistors (as shown above), the circuit will be activated instead by light. Whenever sufficient light falls on the LDR (manually fine-tuned using the 10K variable resistor), the LED will light up.Using an LDR in the Real WorldThe circuits shown above are not practically useful. In a real world circuit, the LED (and resistor) between the positive voltage input (Vin) and the collector (C) of the transistor would be replaced with the device to be powered. Typically a relay is used - particularly when the low voltage light detecting circuit is used to switch on (or off) a 240V mains powered device. A diagram of that part of the circuit is shown above. When darkness falls (if the LDR circuit is configured that way around), the relay is triggered and the 240V device - for example a security light - switches on.NEW For details of a more advanced light/dark sensor circuit click here to read our new article LM741 Light/Dark Sensor Circuit.
