When electric current flows through filament of the bulb, the electrons are squased among themselves due to the thin structure of the bulb. This causes them to emit light. Due to the gases filled in the light bulb, the bulb glows.

How can a dry cell produce electrical energy?

A "dry" cell is actually a misnomer. The electrolyte is actually a moist paste, with enough liquid in it to make the electrochemistry operate exactly the same as a wet cell. The practical difference between a dry cell and a wet cell is that the moist paste electrolyte of the dry cell will not spill out when the cell is turned over like the liquid electrolyte of the wet cell does. This makes manufacturing and transportation of ready to use dry cells possible, while wet cells must be manufactured and shipped without the liquid electrolyte and are filled at the point of sale after installation.
