To form NADPH from NADP+, the necessary reactants are **two electrons and one hydrogen ion**:

NADP+ + 2e- + H+ → NADPH

However, since that option isn't provided among the responses, the closest correct answer given the context is:

**two electrons and two hydrogen ions.**

This is because two hydrogen ions are often derived when considering the full reduction process, even though one can lead to the formation of NADPH through the addition of two electrons and one proton.
