Answer:
The arrangement of leaves on a stem is known as phyllotaxy; leaves can be classified as either alternate, spiral, opposite, or whorled. Plants with alternate and spiral leaf arrangements have only one leaf per node. In an opposite leaf arrangement, two leaves connect at a node.
Explanation:
The function of the arrangement of leaves (phyllotaxy) is to increase a plant's ability to carry on photosynthesis by positioning the leaves in such away as tomaximize the surface area available to intercept sunlight. Leaves may be either caulescent (on obvious stems) or acaulescent (with no obvious stems).
