What is the primary function of a diode in a circuit?
Correct Answer: Rectification
- Step 1: Understand what a diode is. A diode is a small electronic component.
- Step 2: Learn that diodes have two terminals: an anode (positive side) and a cathode (negative side).
- Step 3: Know that diodes allow electric current to flow through them in one direction only.
- Step 4: Recognize that this property of allowing current to flow in one direction is called rectification.
- Step 5: Conclude that the primary function of a diode in a circuit is to control the direction of current flow.
