The correct answer is Chloroplast
The primary function of a leaf is photosynthesis and the chloroplast is the main site for photosynthesis. The rate of photosynthesis is much more in leaves as compared to that of roots. Chloroplast is the place where light and dark reactions takes place. Chloroplast contains a pigment called chlorophyll that absorbs light from the sun for the process of photosynthesis.
Lake is the large body of water found inland and usually feed by a stream.
Explanation:
Lake is a water body that is found inland and usually feed by stream or rivers . Lakes supply drinking water to the cities. Lake plays huge role by providing water to the people which are used for various purpose agriculture, drinking, irrigation. It prevents flood and during dry season it maintains a flow of water. Lakes are also used for hydel power development.
Lake store water and during shortage it provides water . Lakes improves water quality as well as increases the groundwater level and also help in preserving biodiversity.

Characteristics of Maltase from Baker's Yeast:
Molecular weight: 68,500 daltons. pH Optimum: 7.0 - 7.5 using maltose as the substrate. Inhibitors: Thiol blocking compounds, heavy metal ions, histidine, and certain amines. Tris should not be used as a buffer due to its inhibitory effect.
<h2>Mitotic Cell Cycle</h2>
Explanation:
a. Cytochalasin: an inhibitor of actin microfilament
- Cytokinesis is the process by which cytoplasm is divided into two cells hence generation of two daughter cells
- In animal cells the division of cytoplasm starts with the assembly of contractile ring
- Contractile band consists of actin and myosin and catalyze cleavage furrow formation
- Cytochalasin is a drug that blocks the polymerization of actin filament
- When cytochalasin is added dividing cell fails to undergo in cytokinesis due to defective assembly of contractile band
b. Colchicine: an inhibitor of microtubule formation
- Colchicine tightly binds with free tubulin dimer and prevents its polymerization
- In this case mitotic spindle apparatus do not assemble and cells unable to do partitioning of chromosomes into two groups
- Thus cell division is arrested
c. Aphidicolin: an inhibitor of DNA Polymerase activity
- Aphidicolin is used to induce cell cycle arrest via specific inhibition of DNA Polymerase α
- It blocks the cell cycle at early synthesis(S) phase
d. Emetine: an inhibitor of ribosome activity
- It blocks the protein synthesis in eukaryotic cells by binding to small subunit(40 S) of ribosomes
- It interferes with the synthesis and activities of DNA and RNA
