How does an electric bulb 'light up' when an electric current flows through it?

Electricity flows through a thin wire in the light bulb called the filament. ... Therefore as a result of this, the filament heats up and starts glowing, converting electrical energy to light energy. This is because of the Joule-effect, which means that resistances heat up when electrical current runs through them.
