In forward biasing of the p–n junction:

1. the positive terminal of the battery is connected to p–side and the depletion region becomes thick
2. the positive terminal of the battery is connected to n–side and the depletion region becomes thin
3. the positive terminal of the battery is connected to n–side and the depletion region becomes thick
4. the positive terminal of the battery is connected to p–side and the depletion region becomes thin

Correct answer: the positive terminal of the battery is connected to p–side and the depletion region becomes thin

Solution

In forward biasing, the positive terminal of the battery is connected to the p-side, reducing the potential barrier and causing the depletion region to become thin, allowing current to flow.
