Solution

The correct option is D forward, forward
$A n s w e r : -$ D
Saturation region is one in which both Emitter Base and Base Collector junctions of the transistor are forward biased. In this region high currents flows through the transistor, as both junctions of the transistor are forward biased and bulk resistance offered is very much less. Transistor in saturation region is considered as on state in digital logic.
