The correct response to how a light bulb functions as a resistor is:

**It passes the electric current through it, changing the energy into light.**

In a light bulb, the filament (in incandescent bulbs) or the gases (in fluorescent or LED bulbs) resist the flow of electric current, causing energy to be released as light when the current passes through.
