To solve the question regarding which type of biasing results in very high resistance of a p-n junction diode, we will follow these steps:
### Step-by-Step Solution:
1. **Understand the Types of Biasing**:
- There are two main types of biasing for a p-n junction diode: forward biasing and reverse biasing.
- In forward biasing, the p-type material is connected to the positive terminal of the battery, and the n-type material is connected to the negative terminal. This allows current to flow through the diode.
- In reverse biasing, the p-type material is connected to the negative terminal of the battery, and the n-type material is connected to the positive terminal. This prevents current from flowing through the diode.
