A filament is the little wire you see inside of a light bulb that glows normally reddish or orangish when you supply electricity to it such as when you turn on the "LIght Switch". I just simplified it alot, if you need to know more in depth just let me know on this qustion page. An element can also exist in appliances as larger, such as the upper and lower elements in an electric oven, on top of the stove like a burner in electric ranges or in electric water heaters.
