Question
Assertion : A transistor is a voltage-operating device.
Reason : Base current is greater than the collector current.

Answer

(d) A transistor is a current operating device because the action of transistor is controlled by the charge carriers (electrons or holes). Base current is very much lesser than the collector current.
