it depends on the frequency of the current in question. the higher the frequency, the less depth in the cross-section the current flows. this is termed skin depth.

transistor is a current controlled device. as the current flows through the base of the transistor , it works like a close switch.
The electric light bulb would not turn on because it was burnt out.
AC current (alternating current) like in a wall outlet
I believe its a conductor, because an insallator is like a stirofoam cup for example, as it keeps the heat in the cup without burning your hands. An example of a conductor is a piece of metal because it is able to pass an electric current through the metal.
Current leads voltage (or voltage lags current) by 90° in a purely capacitive circuit. Try to remember it this way: capacitors resist change in voltage, hence the voltage lags (they resist voltage change because the voltage first goes to charging up the electric field in the capacitor).Inductors resist change in current (energy in an inductor is in the form of magnetic fields, which are caused by the current through the wire). Remember an inductor is a coil (like an electromagnet, or a transformer).
