HEY DEAR.....
HERE'S YOUR ANSWER⬇
Chloroplast align parallel to the walls of mesophyll cells (mainly palisade cells) when intensity of light is minimum, to get more and more of light. This condition is called Epistrophe.

And when the intensity of light is maximum the chloroplast gets alinged perpendicular to the incident light or the mesophyll cells to avoid photooxidation of chlorophyll a molecule This condition is called Parastrophe.

Any doubts, please ask me in the comments.
I HOPE YOU FIND IT HELPFUL.
