A simple leaf is a leaf, such as an aspen leaf, that does not divide into parts.
A compound leaf is a leaf, such as a walnut leaf, that has several leaflets coming off of a single petiole.
It has more area for photosynthesis and can trap more solar energy.
The blades of simple leaves are undivided, although they may have deep lobes. By contrast, the blades of compound leaves consist of clearly separated leaflets. Each leaflet usually has its own petiole, which is called a petiolule. There are two types of compound leaves: pinnately compound leaves and palmately compound leaves. The leaflets in pinnately compound leaves arise from either side of an axis called the rachis, which is an extension of the petiole. The leaflets in palmately compound leaves originate at the tip of the petiole and lack the rachis.
Palmately veins
The veins on the leaves of dicot plants branch out pinnately or palmately. Pinnate has a central vein called midrib where the small veins are attached.

Holly trees have simple leaves
there are 2 types of compund leaves: a.) pinnately compound b.) palmately compound -thats all. but i dont have a description on it.

Palmately veins
The black locust leaf is a simple leaf. Compound leaves have several different parts that all come together to form a single leaf.
None of the above. Ginkgo biloba is an extremely ancient and unique plant--the last of its genus--and also the only modern broad-leafed plant to have what is referred to as dichotomous venation. Basically, that means that its veins repeatedly divide into two. See related link

compound leaves
Locust trees typically have double compound leaves. :)
