Detailed explanation-1: -Function: Petiole helps to twist the leaf to face the sun. It allows the transport of the energy synthesized in the leaf to the rest of the plant. It also enables the transport of nutrients and water to the leaf.

Detailed explanation-2: -The lamina is attached to the petiole, and the petiole is attached to the stem. The lamina is responsible for photosynthesis, and it is also where the veins of the leaf are located. The veins carry water and nutrients to the lamina.

Detailed explanation-3: -The stalk of the leaf is called petiole; petiole connects the lamina to the stem that allows the leaf lamina to flutter in wind, thereby cooling the leaf and bringing fresh air to the surface. It bears the weight of the lamina and conducts water and food material between the stem and leaf.

Detailed explanation-4: -The lamina is the broad, green part of the leaf that is exposed to sunlight. The midrib is a central, thick, linear structure that runs along the length of the lamina. Petiole is the stalk that supports a leaf in a plant and attaches it to the stem.
