In a PN-junction diode:

1. the current in the reverse biased condition is generally very small.
2. the current in the reverse biased condition is small but the forward-biased current is independent of the bias voltage.
3. the reverse-biased current is strongly dependent on the applied bias voltage.
4. the forward-biased current is very small in comparison to reverse-biased current.
