Explanation:

Holes are also mobile. An electron within the valence band may fill the hole, leaving another hole in its place. In this way a hole appears to move. In the presence of an electric field electrons move in one direction and holes appear to move in the opposite direction.

Answer:

it is the electron which moves from one place to another

Explanation:

They are not particles which move. Actually it is the electron which moves from one place to another( like we see in the Si block when external doping is done), and the site from where it jumps is assigned with positive charge called the hole. Electrons move in the semiconductor and it seems like holes are also moving.
