Explanation:

Leaves that do not have petioles, such as those of the broomrape family, are called sessile leaves. Nearly-petiolate leaves are those that have very short petioles. Grasses do not generally have petioles, but some have petiole-like structures called pseudopetioles

A leaf naturally has three-part, they are the lamina, the petiole, and the stipule. The lamina is also identified as the leaf blade which is the even part of the leaf. It is the broadest part of a leaf. Petiole is the stem of the leaf that spreads from the stem to the base of the leaf. And the stipule is the small green addition usually found at the base of the petiole.

  • The petiole is a stalk that joins a leaf to the plant stem that is the petiole that attaches the leaf blade to the stem.
  • In leaves, the leaf stalk or petiole may be as long as in the leaves of spinach and rhubarb, short or totally absent.
  • The leaves where the petiole is absent are called as Sessile leaf.
  • Plants that have their leaves directly linked to the stem have sessile leaves.
  • They don’t have a leaf stalk (petiole) that joins a leaf to the stem.
  • Examples of plants which have sessile leaves are grass plants, achyranthes, saffron, etc

Petiole aids to hold the leaf blade to the sunlight. Another function of the petiole is to benefit the blade to flutter in the wind. A leaf without petiole is called a sessile leaf.
