A. the semiconductor is heated up
B. a donor element is added
C. an acceptor element is added
D. the semiconductor is conducted to a battery

Correct Answer:

Option C – an acceptor element is added

Explanation

If the dominant impurity atoms are ACCEPTOR type in the semiconductor, it will have a majority of holes over the electrons [p-type].
