Question

Leaf venation and type of root is correctly paired in
(a) parallel venation, fibrous roots
(b) parallel venation, taproot
(c) no relation exists in leaf venation and type of roots
(d) reticulate venation, fibrous roots

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) is the answer.....

Explanation:

If the leaf has parallel venation, the roots of the plant will be fibrous root and if the leaf has reticulate venation, the root is tap root. It is an interesting fact that the leaf venation and the type of roots in a plants are always related to each other.

Answer 2

Leaf venation and type of root are correctly paired in (a) parallel venation, fibrous roots.

Explanation:

• The arrangement of veins in the blade of a leaf is called venation. Vascular tissues make up the veins, which are necessary for the transfer of food and water. Leaf veins run from the petiole to the stem, connecting the blade to the petiole. Xylem, which transports water and soluble ions into the leaf, and phloem, which transports carbohydrates generated by photosynthesis from the leaf to the rest of the plant, are the two main vascular tissues in leaf veins.

• Parallel Venation occurs when the veins are parallel and do not form a network. Parallel venation is found in plants with fibrous roots. Wheat, maize, grass, banana, bamboo, and other plants have fibrous roots and parallel venation in their leaves.
