Solution

The correct option is D electrons have high mobility than holes and hence high mobility of energy.
In npn transistors electrons are majority charge carriers and in pnp transistors holes are majority charge carriers. Electrons have high mobility than holes and hence high mobility of energy.
Hence, npn transistors are preferred than pnp transistors.
