2. Light energy provides energy for the photolysis of water through excitation of the reaction centre of PS-II

3. NADPH is not produced in cyclic electrons transport in light reactions

4. Reactions of the two photosystems are needed for the reduction of NADP

4. From CO₂

The correct equation, representing the overall process of photosynthesis is –
1. 6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6H₂O + 6O₂
2. 6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
3. 6CO₂ + 12H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ + 6H₂O
4. 6CO₂ + 12H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ + H₂O
