When using an ohmmeter to test transistors, you should avoid using R´1 range for which of the following reasons?
A. The R´1 range is not as accurate as the other ranges
B. Most ohmmeters do not produce sufficient voltage on the R´1 range to properly bias a transistor junction
C. Some ohmmeters produce in excess of 100 milliamps of current on the R´1 range and could possibly damage the transistor
D. The R´1 scale is not capable of measuring the high resistances that are typical of a PN junction when forward biased
