Answer 1

Answer:

• Plants have the ability to store food, which is useful in an emergency. Food can be stored in various regions of the body by different plants. Cabbage, lettuce, spinach, and other plants that may store food in their leaves.
• The leaves get modified into thread-like structures called tendrils. These tendrils climb a nearby stick or wall and provide support to the plant. For eg., In Lathyrus aphaca, the whole leaf is modified into tendrils. The upper leaflets of Pisum sativum get modified into tendrils.
• The arrangement of veins in a leaf is called the venation pattern; monocots have parallel venation, while dicots have reticulate venation.
• if a plant has broad leaves, the surface area of the leaves will be more so the the amount of evaporation of water will be more. Most plants like cactus etc. are adapted according to the climate conditions in the desert.
• In the bryophyllum the leaves had leaf buds that develops adventitious roots. When these leafs falls on ground and comes in contact with soil then these plant grows from the leaf buds..
