Given below are two statements: Statement \(I :\) \(PN\) junction diodes can be used to function as transistor, simply by connecting two diodes, back to back, which acts as the base terminal. Statement \(II :\) In the study of transistor, the amplification factor \(\beta\) indicates ratio of the collector current to the base current. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :

Pick an option to check your answer.
