An unknown transistor needs to be identified as a $npn$ or $pnp$ type. $A$ multimeter,with $+ve$ and $-ve$ terminals,is used to measure resistance between different terminals of the transistor. If terminal $2$ is the base of the transistor,then which of the following is correct for a $pnp$ transistor?

  • A
    $+ve$ terminal $2,$ $-ve$ terminal $3,$ resistance low
  • B
    $+ve$ terminal $2,$ $-ve$ terminal $1,$ resistance high
  • C
    $+ve$ terminal $1,$ $-ve$ terminal $2,$ resistance high
  • D
    $+ve$ terminal $3,$ $-ve$ terminal $2,$ resistance high
