Detailed explanation-1: -Simple leaves are single leaves that can not subdivide into leaflets. These leaves attach to a twig with the help of the petiole or stem. Compound leaves can divide to mid-vein and form multiple leaflets or blades on a common rachis. Also, sometimes the leaflets can be compound.
Detailed explanation-2: -Leaves can be either simple or compound in shape. Simple leaves have a single leaf blade, while compound leaves have many leaflets. Remember, you can tell the difference between a leaf and a leaflet by looking for the bud at the base of the petiole.
Detailed explanation-3: -Compound: The leaf is separated into distinct leaflets, each with its own small petiole (but without an axillary bud). Simple: The leaf may be lobed or divided, but does not form distinct leaflets. Petiole: The stalk of a leaf.
Detailed explanation-4: -Compound leaves generally come in two patterns, palmate and pinnate. This one is palmate. Palmate leaflets connect to a central spot, like fingers to your palm. This one is pinnate.
