Solution
The correct option is C i and iii
In simple leaves, the green part of the leaf that is specialised to perform photosynthesis is single and is undivided. E.g. Hibiscus leaves, guava leaves, etc.
In compound leaves, the green part is divided into distinct segments or leaflets. E.g. Rose, neem, etc.
