Chloroplast movement is widespread among algae, mosses, and leaves of higher plants, what will be the orientation of chloroplast in dark as well as in light?

a.) In dark, chloroplasts gather at the cell surfaces parallel to the plane of the leaf so that they are aligned perpendicularly to the incident light

b.) Under high light, , the chloroplasts move to the cell surfaces that are parallel to the incident light, thus avoiding excess absorption of light

c.) the orientation of the chloroplasts in the dark is such that maximizes absorption of light

d.) the orientation of the chloroplasts in the high light is such that maximizes absorption of light

Listed below are the hydrostatic and oncotic pressures and filtration rate across a muscle capillary wall:

Capillary hydrostatic pressure (Pc) = 25 mm Hg

Plasma colloid osmotic pressure (Πp) = 25 mm Hg

Interstitial colloid osmotic pressure (ΠI) = 10 mm Hg

Interstitial hydrostatic pressure (PI) = −5 mm Hg

Capillary filtration rate = 150 ml/min

What is the capillary filtration coefficient?

An explanation for the evolution of insect wings suggests that wings began as lateral extensions of the body that were used as heat dissipaters for thermoregulation. When they had become sufficiently large, these extensions became useful for gliding through the air, and selection later refined them as flight-producing wings. If this hypothesis is correct, insect wings could best be described as

If the malesʹ halteres have species-specific size, shape, color, and use in courtship displays, and if the speciesʹ ranges overlap, then the speciation events may have been driven, at least in part, by which of the following?
