Question

Coriander leaves are separated from mint leaves by _______________. (handpicking/ winnowing)

Answer 1

• Both the leaves are different in size. Hence coriander leaves are separated from mint leaves by handpicking.
• Handpicking - It is defined as a process to separate undesirable constituents from a mixture by picking with hands.
• Winnowing - It is a process to separate light solid substances from heavier ones using wind.
• Example - Husk from wheat can be separated by winnowing.

Thus, coriander leaves are separated from mint leaves by handpicking.
