For using a multimeter to identify a diode from electrical components,choose the correct statement about the diode from the following:

  • A
    It is a two-terminal device which conducts current in both directions.
  • B
    It is a two-terminal device which conducts current in one direction only.
  • C
    It does not conduct current and gives an initial deflection which decays to zero.
  • D
    It is a three-terminal device which conducts current in one direction only between the central terminal and either of the remaining two terminals.
