What is the reason for carrying multiple transponders in a satellite? Correct Answer More number of operating channel

To be economically feasible, a satellite must be capable of handling several channels. As a result, most satellites contain multiple transponders, each operating at a different frequency. Each transponder represents an individual communication channel.
