Study Notes
Leaf Types
- Different types of leaves exist, categorized by their structure and arrangement
- Simple leaf: Single blade, attached directly to the stem.
- Compound leaf: Divided into multiple leaflets, attached to a common point.
- Palmately compound leaf: Leaflets radiate from a common point, resembling fingers.
- Pinnately compound leaf: Leaflets arranged along a central axis, like a feather.
- Doubly compound leaf: Leaflets are further divided into smaller leaflets.
Leaf Structure
- Anatomy of a dicot leaf: Describing the arrangement of tissues and cells: Epidermis, cuticle, palisade mesophyll, spongy mesophyll, vascular bundles, stomata.
- Functions: Photosynthesis, transpiration and gas exchange.
- Leaf venation: The pattern of veins, like reticulate (net-like) and parallel.
- Adaptations: Leaves of desert plants are often small to reduce water loss, while those in humid environments may have large surface areas for optimal CO2 absorption.
