Answer:
A leaf is actually called ‘the kitchen of the plant’. This is because they are the main organ responsible for photosynthesis, through which the plant produces its energy a.k.a. it’s food. They obtain their green color due to the presence of chlorophyll.
Leaves are the most important part of a plant. They contain chlorophyll that helps the plants to prepare their food using sunlight, carbon dioxide and water. A leaf consists of three main parts- petiole, leaf base and lamina.
The petiole keeps the leaf blade exposed to wind and cools the leaf.
The leaf base is a protruding part of a leaf.
The lamina of the leaf contains veins and veinlets that provide rigidity to the leaf blade and help in the transport of mineral nutrients.
