In bilateral element the voltage current relationship is same for current flowing in either direction.
Ex:transformer,resistor,inductance,capacitance etc.,

In unilateral element the voltage current relationship is not same for current flowing in either direction.
Ex: vaccumtubes,diodes,transistors etc.,
