For More Understanding

Explanation

Option D is correct. According to the provided text, extrinsic semiconductors doped with trivalent impurity are called p-type semiconductors. In these semiconductors, the holes are in larger numbers compared to electrons (nh>>nen_h >> n_e), making holes the majority carriers and electrons the minority carriers.
