What is the significance of two base terminals in UJT?

These two series resistances produce a voltage divider network between the two base terminals of the UJT and since this channel stretches from B2 to B1, when a voltage is applied across the device, the potential at any point along the channel will be in proportion to its position between terminals B2 and B1. The level of the voltage gradient therefore depends upon the amount of supply voltage.

When used in a circuit, terminal B1 is connected to ground and the Emitter serves as the input to the device. Suppose a voltage VBB is applied across the UJT between B2 and B1 so that B2 is biased positive relative to B1.
