This feature is an adaptive, as the redistribution of chloroplasts within the cells modulates light absorption and prevents photodamage, diagram shows of chloroplast distribution patterns in Arabidopsis palisade cells in response to different light intensities;

                                        

m) A-low light, B-high light, C-darkness

n) A-high light, B-darkness, C-low light

Based on the above light intensities, each shows different chloroplasts position such as,

i) chloroplasts avoid sunlight by migrating to the side walls of palisade cells

ii) chloroplasts move to the bottom of the cell, although the physiological function of this position is unclear

iii) chloroplasts optimize light absorption by accumulating at the upper and lower sides of palisade cells

Which of the following correct combinations shows light intensities and chloroplast movements?
