Question

Name the venation of neem leaf and mint leaf.

Answer 1

Venation:

1. Venation means the arrangement of veins and veinlets in the lamina of leaves.
2. There are two types of venation, Reticulate venation, and Parallel venation.
3. In reticulate venation the arrangement of veinlets is in the form of a network. This is the characteristic feature of dicotyledon plants.
4. Parallel venation is the venation in which the veinlets form the parallel lines. It is found in monocotyledons.
5. Both in neem leaf and mint leaf, reticulate venation is found.
