Solution

The correct option is C

Palm


  • A leaf is said to be simple, when its lamina is entire, or when incised the incisions do not touch the midrib.
  • When the incisions of the lamina reach up to the midrib breaking it into a number of leaflets, the leaf is called compound. A palm leaf consists of many leaflets that join together to form a big compound leaf.
