उत्तर
a and c
Explanation:
Transistor: A junction transistor is formed by sandwiching 2 thin layer of P-type semiconductors between two N-type semiconductors. or by sandwiching a thin taver of V-type semiconductors between two P-type semiconductors.

E — Emitter (emits majority charge carriers)
C — Collects majority charge carriers
B — Base (provide proper interaction between E and C)

In normal operation base-emitter is forward biased, i.e., the positive pole of the emitter-base battery is connected to the base and its negative pole is connected to the emitter. And collector-base junction is reverse biased, i.e., the positive pole of the collector base battery is connected to the collector and the negative pole to base. Thus, electron moves from emitter to base and crossovers from emitter to collector.
