decussate leafs are arranged at a 90 degree angle

Question 17

function of leaves

Answer 17

capture sunlight, have pores for transpiration and gas enhance, release water vapor and O2, function in protection and support, attract pollinators, trap insects, photosynthesis

found in stomata

Answer 24

aka angiosperms

Question 25

eudicots vs monocots

Answer 25

M :narrow leaf, parallel veins

Question 26

flower parts of eudicots vs monocots

Answer 26

monocots: 3

Question 27

number of pores present in eudicots and monocots

Answer 27

M: 1 pore

Question 28

sessile

Answer 28

leaf with no petiole

Question 29

lamina

Answer 29

blade

Question 30

midrib

Answer 30

main vein

Question 31

margin

Answer 31

outside of leaf

Question 32

stipules

Answer 32

accessory leaf underneath blade

Question 33

simple leaf vs compound leaf

Answer 33

one continuous blade vs multiple leaflets

compound leafs have a rachis (plant stem)

Question 34

distinguishing simple leafs from compound leafs

Answer 34

leaflets never have buds in axiles of petiolules

leaflets are always arranged in two rows, never spiraled, whorled, or decussate

tip of rachis has no terminal bud

Answer 35

unipinate

bi pinnate

tri pinnate

Question 36

palmate

Answer 36

all leaves attached at same point

Question 37

advantages associated with compound leaves

Answer 37

leaflets can flex in the wind, increased turbulence, pests and disease spread less quickly

Question 38

types of venation

Answer 38

pinnate, palmate, parallel, or dichotomous
