Bipolar means something possessing two poles or terminals or charges. Generally, these terminals or poles have opposite functions or characteristics. The word bipolar is used as an adjective. The objects or things which possess such bipolar regions are said to possess bipolarity. A transistor makes use of positive and negative charges or makes use of polarization principle or bipolarity. Another, known example of bipolar charge carriers is our Earth. The north and the south poles of Earth possess opposite charges. The regions that are near these poles are called Polar Regions. Thus, anything that relates to both Polar Regions of the Earth is called bipolar.
