Answer:
Fluid pressure is a measurement of the force per unit area on a object in the fluid or on the surface of a closed container. This pressure can be caused by gravity, acceleration, or by forces outside a closed container. Since a fluid has no definite shape, its pressure applies in all directions.

Explanation:
Yes, fluids exert pressure.
The fluid is exerted by a fluid at a given point inside the fluid in all directions.
And , the pressure of fluids acting along sideways is known as Lateral pressure.
Pressure at a particular point inside a liquid is given by the formula ;
P=hdg, where h is the height, d is the density of fluid and g is the acceleration due to gravity(9.8 or 10 ms¯².
Fluid pressure is independent of the area of cross-section.
