Is active is a cutoff region of transistor?
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.
What is cutoff region in transistor?
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.
The transistor acts like a diode and?
Yes, the transistor acts like a diode. That is, essentially, what it does. What it also does, and what give it its added value and ability to amplify, is that the base current causes the collector-emitter "diode" junction to vary in its turn-on characteristic. With this ability, you can control a large current with a small current, and a small delta-current in the base causes a larger delta-current in the collector, the ratio being hFe, hence the term "gain".
How transistor act as a switch?
A: When a transistor is saturated current can flow in both direction qualifying it as a switch
Working of npn transistor?
N-p-n transistor is made by sandwiching thin layer of p-type semiconductor between two layers of n-type semiconductor. It has three terminals, Emitter, Base and collector. The npn transistor has two supplies, one is connected through the emitter base and one through the collector base. The supply is connected such that emitter-base are forward biased and collector base are reverse biased. It means , Base has to be more positive than the emitter and in turn, the collector must be more positive than the base. The current flow in this type of transistor is carried through movement of electrons. Emitter emits electrons which are pulled my the base as it is more positive. these end up in the collector as it is yet more positive. In this way, current flows in the transistor. Transistor can be used as an amplifier, a switch etc.

What is NPNbiasing of a transistor?
An NPN transistor must be biased with a positive voltage in order to "turn on". A silicon transistor must have at least .07 volts on its base to start current flow from the collector to the emitter of the transistor. Some transistors have different biasing voltages. Like a germanium transistor will "turn on" at .02 volts.
What will be the collector current of emitter base junction of a transister is reversed?
The question is poorly phrased and needs a grammatical cleanup. If you mean to ask "what happens to the collector-emitter current of a transistor when the emitter-base junction is reverse biased" then the answer is that the transistor will turn off, and you will only see leakage current.
What component is used to turn the current on and off?
A transistor is commonly used to turn the current on and off in electronic circuits. By applying a small input signal to the transistor, it can control the flow of current between its terminals, effectively acting as a switch.

What is the working of a transistor?
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

How do NPN bipolar junction transistors turn on and off?
In order to bias a bipolar junction transistor on, you need to forward bias the base-emitter junction at the same time you forward bias the collector-emitter junction, and the ratio of collector current over base current must be somewhat less than hFe, the transistor's gain. This is known as saturated, or non-linear mode, operation. In practice, we drive the base much harder than the calculated required current, so as to minimize dependency on varying hFe's for various transistors.Turning the transistor off is a simple matter of eliminating the base current.In the case of the NPN transistor, the base and collector would need to be more positive than the emitter. In the case of the PNP, they would need to be more negative.
What is emitter biasing?
Emitter biasing is when you add a resistor between the emitter of a transistor and the 0v rail so that any voltage developed across the emitter will subtract from the voltage on the base and effectively turn the transistor OFF. We are talking about an NPN transistor and the transistor is an "ordinary transistor" or BJT (bi-polar Junction Transistor).
