Current flows between the diffusion terminals if the voltage on the gate
terminal is large enough to create a conducting “channel”, otherwise the
diffusion terminals are not connected.

The use of both NFETs and PFETs – complementary transistor types – is a key
to CMOS (complementary MOS) logic families.
