(a) How does the wire in the filament of a light bulb behave differently to the other wires in the circuit when the current flows?

(b) What property of the filament wire accounts for this difference?

$\huge\bold\pink{Answer:⤵}$

(a)The wire in the filament of a light bulb has a high resistance and a high melting point. So, it heats up without melting and glows when the current flows through it. ... It is the high melting point of the filament wire that is accountable for this difference.

(b)high resistance of the filament wire accounts for this difference.
