The collector is so named because it collects electrons from base. The collector is the largest of the three regions, thus it must dissipate more heat than the emitter or base. that is why it has a larger area.
The active region of a transistor is when the transistor has sufficient base current to turn the transistor on and for a larger current to flow from emitter to collector. This is the region where the transistor is on and fully operating.
a transistor in active region when emitter junction is forward biased nd collector junction is reverse biased
The cutoff region is when the transistor doesn't have sufficient base current to drive a larger current from emitter to collector. Therefore, the transistor does not turn on and stays shut off.
Collector has larger area than base and emitter because base collector is reverse biased, hence the current flow here due to the minority carriers and the large power dissipation takes place by the majority carriers, this power dissipated in the form of heat.. To cool the device from heat we made the larger area........
For a transistor to be in active region : Base Emitter junction should be forward biased and Emitter collector junction should be reverse biased.

a transistor can only work in active region cox in active region collector base junction is in reverse bias and emitter base junction is in forward bias.
For a transistor to be in active region : Base Emitter junction should be forward biased and Emitter collector junction should be reverse biased.
The breakdown region of a transistor is the region where the supply voltage, Vcc, becomes so large that the collector-emitter junction of the transistor breaks down and conducts, even though there is no base current.
Emitter current is the sum of collector current & base current , hence the largest. Base current is the smallest.
For proper working of a transistor,the voltage at the base region must be more positive than that of the emitter region.The voltage at the collector region, in turn, must be more positive than that of the base region.when voltage is applied to transistor, the emitter supplies electron,which is pulled by the base from the emitter as it is more positive than the emitter.This movement of electrons from emitter to collector creates as flow of electricity through the transistor.The current passes from the emitter to the collector through the base.Thus, adjustment of voltage in the base region modifies the flow of the current in the transistor by changing the number of electron in the base region. In this way, small changes in the base voltage can cause large changes in the current flowing out of the collector. We have three transistor element, a.)Emitter b.)Base c.)Collector
A Darlington pair uses two transistors connected to behave as a single transistor with a very high current gain (beta). Transistor-1 has its collector connected to the collector of transistor-2. Transistor-1 has its emitter connected to the base of transistor-2. The base of transistor-1 with the emitter and collector of transistor-2 is used as a single transistor.
The emitter, the base, and the collector are parts of a transistor.
