Which outcome occurs when the Fermi level crosses extended band edges?

💡 Explanation

As the Fermi level crosses into a band, more electrons contribute to conduction via the band transport mechanism, because the density of states rises sharply; therefore, conductivity increases abruptly, rather than gradually altering magnetism or temperature behavior.
