The lamina is the expanded portion or blade of a leaf and it is an above-ground organ specialized for photosynthesis. For this purpose, a leaf is typically, to a greater or lesser degree, flat and thin, to expose the chloroplast containing cells (chlorenchyma) to light over a broad area, and to allow light to penetrate fully into the tissues.

The scientific term for the vein of a leaf is Xylem and phloem.
Each leaf typically has a leaf blade ( lamina ), stipules, a midrib, and a margin. Some leaves have a petiole, which attaches the leaf to the stem; leaves that do not have petioles are directly attached to the plant stem and are called sessile leaves.
The central vein can be called a midrib or mid-vein
Leaf Apex- The outer end of the leaf Vein- Supports the leaf and transports both food and water Midrib- The central rib of the leaf Axil- Angle between the upper side of a stem and a leaf or petiole Petiole- Attaches the leaf to the plant Lamina- The blade of the leaf Stipule- Paired appendages that are found at the base of the petiole Stem- The main support of the leaf
hello I'm mark and please add me on friendster and myspace! a midrib is the central part of a leaf,,,... and it can help 2 carry the leaf tightly... a midrib is commonly find at the back part of a leaf which is become a storage of the stomata.... It helps to keep the leaf in an upright position and to keep the leaf strong with protection from the wind It's the primary vein which consists of vascular bundles-- food nutrients and water conduction. It also supports the leaf to be exposed to the sunlight.

Yes, pterophytes have fronds, which are large, complex leaves that typically have a prominent midrib and branching veins. These fronds are the primary photosynthetic organs of pterophytes and are characteristic of this group of plants.
The rubber tree (Ficus elastica) has pinnate venation, characterized by a single prominent midrib running down the center of the leaf with smaller veins branching off to the sides.
A center midrib is the central vein that runs along the underside of a leaf, providing support and acting as a conduit for nutrients and water flow to and from the leaf. It helps maintain the leaf's structure and shape.
