**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding Chloroplasts**: Chloroplasts are the organelles in plant cells responsible for photosynthesis. They contain chlorophyll, which captures light energy. 2. **Mesophyll Cells**: These cells are located in the leaves and are rich in chloroplasts. They play a crucial role in the photosynthesis process. 3. **Chloroplast Alignment**: Chloroplasts can align in two positions: horizontal and vertical. The question specifically asks about their vertical alignment along the lateral walls of mesophyll cells. ...

Scroll like bones that form lateral wall of nasal cavity are called

Assertion : Chloroplasta occur inside the leaves mostly in mesophyll cells along their walls. Reason: The membrane system of chloroplast is responsible for trapping the light energy and also for the synthesis of ATP and NADPH.

Water is filled to a height of 2.5 m in a container lying rest on a horizontal surface as shown in the figure. The bottom of the container is square shaped of side sqrt(3) and its top is open. There is a very small hole in the vertical wall of the container near the bottom. A small cap closes the hole. The hole gets opened when pressure near the bottom becomes more than 4 xx 10^(4) pascal a, What minimum acceleration can be given to the container in the positive x -direction so that the cap will come out of the hole? Assume water does not spill out of container when the container accelerates. Find the velocity of efflux as soon as the container starts moving with the acceleration calculated in part a. of the question.

You are holding a cage containing a bird. Do you have to make less effort if the bird flies from its position in the cage and manages to stay in the middle without touching the walls of he cage? Does it make a difference whether the cage is completely closed or it has rods to let air pass?
