Electric current in the conductor is due to flow of electrons. When these flowing electrons bump into atoms in the conductor, they transfer some of their kinetic energy to them. This produces heat in the conductor and increases its temperature. A conductor with higher resistivity will heat more.
Hope this helps u!

Due to the joules law of heating
When electricity is passed through the conductor electrons colloid many times this produce heat
