The following are the reactions occuring during the light reactions of photosynthesis:

2H20 =O2 + 4e + 4H (0xidation of H2O)

2NADP + 4e + 4H = 2NADPH +2H (reduction of NADP)

ADP +Pi =ATP (ATP synthesis)

This is the equation of light reactions:

2H2O + 2NADP + nADP + nPi + hv = O2 + 2NADPH + 2H + nATP

Answers:

Reactions occuring during light reactions:

1. 2H2O = O2 + 4H

2. ADP + Pi = ATP

3. NADP + 2e + 2H = NADPH

The rest of the choices are reactions that does not occur during light reaction.
