The current you set it to work at. Using for example resistors you can set the voltages and currents at a certain DC level. At that point the transistor will work. It is mostly (but not always) used to put the transistor in its linear region.
Diode is a two terminal semicon. Diode is a Switching device
avalanche
In a JFET the only insulation between the gate and the channel is a reverse biased diode junction, if this junction becomes forward biased then the gate and channel are effectively shorted and the device no longer acts as a transistor (it will act as a forward biased diode instead). In the n-channel JFET, the gate is the P-side of this diode and the channel is the N-side of this diode. To keep this diode reverse biased (and the device operating as a transistor) therefor the gate MUST always be maintained at a voltage more negative than the most negative section of the channel.
it is a rectify diode
Its schotlky diode. schotlky diode is metal semi conducter junction. It has fast switchng speed. The cutting voltage of schotlky diode is about 0.2 volts.
The diode load line helps determine the operating point of a diode circuit by showing the possible combinations of voltage and current that the diode can have. This analysis is important for understanding how the diode will behave in the circuit and ensuring it operates within its specified parameters.

The incremental resistance of a diode is the inverse of the slope of the V-I curve at the operating point.
Look at the "Diode Markings"
"The application of a DC voltage in forward bias mode to a circuit containing a diode will result in a specific DC voltage and DC current across the diode, known as the DC operating point, Q point (VDQ, IDQ)." source: http://www.doe.carleton.ca/~achar/notes_2507/Lab3_tutorial_diodes.pdf
it means the entrance point of a diode
A silicon diode is a tiny electronic component having two terminals, usually a switch or limiting device.

The point in the forward operating region of the characteristic curve where conduction starts to increase rapidly is called Knee voltage of a PN Junction Diode.The breakdown voltage of a diode is the minimum reverse voltage to make the diode conduct in reverse.(or) Breakdown voltage is a parameter of a diode that defines the largest reverse voltage that can be applied without causing an exponential increase in the current in the diode.-- Dinakar
In OA79, the letter A stands for rectifier diode and O stands for Germanium. It acts as a point contact germanium diode and also be replaced with 1N4148 depending on the circuit.
If the reverse recovery time of the diode is too long for the operating frequency, the diode will never turn off.
