So we have current flowing from the collector to the emitter and the amount of current is controlled

by amount of current we pump from the base. A small amount of Ib will cause a large amount of Ic
to flow.

The positive side of the battery is connector to the collector of the circuit pumping current through
the transistor. What controls that current is the amount of current through the base, a small of
current from the base will cause the a large amount if Ic. Stopping the current from the base will
stop the current flowed from the collector to the emitter.
An NPN transistor is a type of bipolar junction transistor (BJT) commonly used in
electronic circuits. It consists of three layers of semiconductor material: an N-doped
layer (the emitter), a P-doped layer (the base), and another N-doped layer (the
collector). In an NPN transistor, the majority charge carriers are electrons.

When a small current flows between the base and emitter, it controls a larger current
flowing between the collector and emitter. This property allows NPN transistors to
amplify signals and switch electronic circuits on and off.
