A plant with compound leaves is - |
A. | Papaya |
B. | Coconut |
C. | Peepal |
D. | Hibiscus |
Answer» B. Coconut | |
Explanation: A compound leaf has a fully subdivided blade, each leaflet of the blade separated along a main or secondary vein. Because each leaflet can appear to be a simple leaf, it is important to recognize where the petiole occurs to identify a compound leaf. Compound leaves are a characteristic of some families of higher plants, such as the Fabaceae. The coconut palm produces a crown of pinnately compound yellow-green leaves called fronds. Each frond reaches 15 to 17 feet in length. |
