In a transistor,the base is made very thin and is lightly doped with an impurity because:

  • A
    to enable the collector to collect $95\%$ of the holes or electrons coming from the emitter side
  • B
    to enable the emitter to emit a small number of holes or electrons
  • C
    to save the transistor from higher current effects
  • D
    none of the above
