I don't know nothing about semiconductor physics. But if we connect the Source to GND and Drain to 1.2V. And if we assume that parasitic BJT base is at the middle of a length of a channel. The base voltage will be equal to 0.6V because it is on the middle of a MOS channel.
And also notice the bode to diode voltage is -0.6V. And to get rid one of these parasitic diodes. We short MOS body with the Source. And we end-up with this

Interesting.
I think both diodes are parasitic and undesired. Is there a way to cancel both diode?
In 4-terminal MOSFET drain and source are the same. It is symmetric.
But in 3-terminal MOSFET drain and source are different.
Do you agree?
Almost all discrete MOSFET has build-in parasitic diode (body diode with cathode on the Drain, anode on the Source for N-channel). This diode will not conduct until Source voltage will be greater then the Dource voltage. If Vsd < 0.6V body diode is OFF. So until the diode is OFF you can swap the drain and source. The MOSFET will conduct equally well in both directions.
As my understanding, in dual channel mosfet the voltage drop across drain and source each mosfet will cancel out that of the other mosfet. Is it right?

I made a stupid spelling error. I meant body-drain diode.

Jony, I still don't know why we need a dual ch mosfet. In your picture, one thing I can get is about the symmetry, drain and source can be swapped. However, the parasitic diode, body to drain diode, is still there.
