Solution

The correct option is A increases
When PN junction os forward biased , the current in junction increases as the resistance if forward biased is ideally considered to be zero.

The process by which, a p-n junction diode allows the electric current in the presence of applied voltage is called forward biased p-n junction diode.

In forward biased p-n junction diode, the positive terminal of the battery is connected to the p-type semiconductor material and the negative terminal of the battery is connected to the n-type semiconductor material.


Therefore, A is correct option.
