Answer:
a fuse wire is made of an element which has a lower melting point or higher according to our needs. normally it is made up of copper.
a fuse is connected in series in a circuit which prevents overloading. when excess current flows through it the fuse wire melts thus breaking the circuit.this is how a fuse works.
we have different capacities in fuse like 2ampere, 5A,10A.

Answer:
The use of fuse safeguards the circuit and appliances connected in that circuit from being damaged.An alloy of lead and tin is used as a material of fuse because it has low melting point and high resistivity.
