Solution
Venation is the arrangement of veins in the lamina of the leaf. Two types of venation are reticulate venation and parallel venation.
When the veins are irregularly distributed to form a channel, it is known as Reticulate Venation. It can be seen in tulsi, coriander (dhania), china rose, hibiscus, mango, etc. When the veins are parallel and do not form a network, it is known as Parallel Venation. It can be seen in wheat, maize, grass, banana, bamboo, etc.
