Answer:
The lightbulb will NOT light.
Explanation:
You put me in a difficult position. I can't help it, but the "sample answer" is by far the best way to explain this, briefly and correctly. There's no other choice but to copy it.
This is a short circuit. The branch without the bulb has almost no resistance, so all the current will flow through that branch instead of flowing through the bulb.
<em>If</em> the lower switch were <u>opened</u>, THEN we would have a series circuit. Current would no longer have any other choice but to flow through the bulb, and the bulb would light.

ELECTROSTATIC:
relating to stationary electric charges or fields as opposed to electric currents.
NEUTRAL:
nor negative nor positive/having no charge
POSITIVELY CHARGED:
positive charge occurs when the number of protons exceeds the number of electrons
NEGATIVELY CHARGED:
negative charge occurs when the number of electrons exceeds the number of protons.
COULOMB:
SI unit for electric charge. One coulomb is equal to the amount of charge from a current of one ampere flowing for one second.
MICROCOULOMB:
a unit of electrical charge equal to one millionth of a coulomb.
NANOCOULOMB:
Nanocoulombs are a unit of charge 1,000,000,000 times smaller than Coulomb.
CONSERVATION OF CHARGE:
constancy of the total electric charge in the universe or in any specific chemical or nuclear reaction
QUANTISATION OF CHARGE:
Charge quantization is the principle that the charge of any object is an integer multiple of the elementary charge.
M/s, km/h, and mph are all used to measure these quantities
