To maximise the surface area for photosynthesis, plants increase the size of their leaves
These plants grow in shady places have broad leaves because in shady places there is less amount of light and broad leaves can absorb maximum amount of light.....
Plants with broad leaves are typically referred to as broadleaf plants. Broadleaf plants include a wide variety of species such as maple trees, oak trees, sunflowers, and hostas. Broad leaves are advantageous for capturing sunlight for photosynthesis and are common in temperate and tropical regions. They contrast with narrow leaves, which are typically found in grasses and conifers.
Plants with broad leaves (maple, some oaks, elms) will freeze when the cold weather comes because the sap will have greater exposure to low temperatures. Pine trees have adapted by having "needle" leaves, which do not expose such a large surface to low temperatures.
False. Two large groups of plants could be seed plants and seedless plants, or vascular and nonvascular plants. All plants have leaves of some kind or another.
No they don't. What kind of trees are coniferous? It means, cone bearing. So, the most familiar kind of cone on a tree is the pine cone. What kind of leaves do pine trees have? They have needles, very narrow leaves that do not drop off in the fall, but stay on all year. Some conifers, such as the Larch, drop their leaves in the Autumn, but they do not have large broad leaves.
The three adaptations that permitÊplants to catch Êas much light as possible are smaller leaves, chloroplast mainly in the palisade mesophyll cells. Finally there areÊmore proteins in chloroplasts.
it is found that leaves of plant with broad blades can absorb sound and this technique is used in controlling sound pollution. The root formation of plants is very alike to the hearing mechanism of humans. :)
No. There are many leaves for many plants. Just go look outside. Are the leaves on the trees the same as the leaves and the bushes? Flowers? Plants? No. There are many leaves for many plants. Just go look outside. Are the leaves on the trees the same as the leaves and the bushes? Flowers? Plants?
Leaves that have a small surface area lose less water.
Some plants have sticky leaves to trap insects, which they then digest for nutrients that are lacking in their environment.
There are some differences in the leaves of each variety. Cannabis indica plants typically have broad leaves and are often very dark in colour. The leaves are shorter than those of those of cannabis sativa but longer than ruderalis. Typically there are 3-5 blades per leaf. Cannabis sativa plants typically have long, thin, pointy leaves with 6-12 blades per leaf. Usually, the leaves are light green in colour. Cannabis ruderalis plants typically have small broad leaves with 4-6 blades per leaf. The leaves are dark green in colour.
Some examples of plants with simple leaves include dandelions, sunflowers, and roses. These plants have leaves that are not divided into smaller leaflets and have a single, undivided blade.
