Answers
Answer:
1. Petiole: The stalk that joins a leaf to a stem.
2. Leaf base: The leaf base is the slightly expanded area where the leaf attaches to the stem.
3. Floral buds: A small protuberance on a stem or branch, sometimes enclosed in protective scales and containing an undeveloped leaf, flower, or leafy shoot.
4. Reticulate venation: A branching vascular system with successively thinner veins diverging as branches from the thicker veins.
5. Nodes: The part of a plant stem from which one or more leaves emerge, often forming a slight swelling.
6. Adventitious Buds: Adventitious budding can form if a new circumstance changes something in the plant's situation. For example, think of the trunk of a tree that is shaded because of the tree next to it. If that neighboring tree falls, the first tree's trunk is exposed to sunlight.
7. Terminal Buds: The terminal bud is the dominant or the main bud of a plant that is responsible for all of its new growth.
