In a transistor, forward bias voltage is always low as compared to reverse bias voltage. Why?

Draw a p-n junction with reverse bias

A 3V battery may be connected across the point A and B as shown in Fig. Assume that the resistance of each diode is zero in the forward bias and infinity in the reverse bias. Find the current supplied by the battery if the positive terminal of the battery is connected to the point A the point B.

The current in the forward bias is known to be more (in mA ) than the current in the reverse bias (in mu A ). What is the reason then to operate the photodiodes in reverse bias?
