It can be to provide light, provide heat or act as an indicator of some type. Current flows through the bulb and it lights up.
Use the power provided. The generic term for such items is "load".

In which circuit did screwing out one bulb not influence the lighting of the other bulb?
A parallel circuit will not effect the other bulb. If the bulbs are in a series circuit the other bulb will not turn on.
What happens to the potential difference of a bulb that burns out in series circuit?
The whole circuit fails - because the action of the bulb blowing cuts the circuit.
What is the Function of light bulb in an electric circuit?
The function of a light bulb in an electric circuit is that it turns electrical energy into light.
If a light bulb is missing in a series circuit will the bulb light?
If one light bulb in a series circuit fails, all the other light bulbs will go out, until the failed bulb is replaced and the series circuit is completed again.If one light bulb in a parallel circuit fails, all the other light bulbs will still work.
How does circuit stop flowing when light bulb switch is off?
The simplist answers is that electricity needs to complete a circuit fully. It stops flowing because there is no complete circuit. The switch is a device for opening and closing the circuit. When the switch is in the off position the circuit is said to be open and electricity cannot flow.
What is a bulb's job in a circuit?
The bulb is the load of the circuit, without it you have a short circuit.
What job does a bulb do in a circuit?
The bulb converts energy from the power source into light and heat. It is the load in the circuit.
What a batteries job is?
The job of a battery is to power the torch. if the circuit is not complete then the bulb wont light up and if the batteries arent the right way round the bulb wont light up either.
In which circuit did screwing out one bulb not influence the lighting of the other bulb?
A parallel circuit will not effect the other bulb. If the bulbs are in a series circuit the other bulb will not turn on.
Is circuit part of a light bulb?
Yes, a circuit is a part of a light bulb. It is designed to provide the necessary electrical connection for the bulb to receive power and emit light. Without the circuit, a light bulb would not be able to function properly.
If the filament of the bulb is broken would the circuit be complete?
If the bulb's filament is broken, the whole circuit becomes open. If the bulb is in a series circuit or is the only bulb, the electricity would no longer flow. If the bulb is in a parallel circuit, along with other bulbs, then only the blown bulb would go out, and the other bulbs would still work.
What happens when a bulb gets fused?
When a bulb fuses the circuit is broken if it is on a serial circuit. If the bulb is on a parallel circuit, only the fused bulb will go out, any other bulb would remain lit. On a serial circuit, until the bulb is replaced by a new one, the circuit is not able to be used.
What does light bulb do in a circuit?
It completes the circuit!!
What happens to a bulb when you move it to the battery on a circuit?
It doesn't matter where the bulb is in respect to the battery, as long as the circuit is complete, the bulb will light up.
How much energy each of the bulb will get in the two circuits?
The total energy delivered to each bulb in a circuit depends on the voltage of the circuit and the resistance of the bulb. In a series circuit, the total voltage is divided among all bulbs, so each bulb receives less energy compared to a parallel circuit where each bulb gets the full voltage of the circuit.
What could you add to the circuit to control the bulb?
Switch
What happens to the potential difference of a bulb that burns out in series circuit?
The whole circuit fails - because the action of the bulb blowing cuts the circuit.
