Solution
The process described in the question is the Linear Electron Flow. This process occurs during the light reactions of photosynthesis where water (H₂O) is split, providing a source of electrons and protons (H⁺), and releasing O₂ as a by-product. These electrons then move from the photosystem II to the photosystem I, and finally to NADP⁺, reducing it to NADPH. This is why the net electron flow is from H₂O to NADP⁺.
