Detailed explanation-1: -Monocots have parallel venation in which the veins run in straight lines across the length of the leaf without converging. In dicots, however, the veins of the leaf have a net-like appearance, forming a pattern known as reticulate venation.
Detailed explanation-2: -Dicots have leaves with veins that connect and branch from each other. Veins in a branch-ing pattern are called netted veins. A leaf with netted veins sometimes has several smaller veins branching out of a dominant midrib, a condition known as pinnately netted.
Detailed explanation-3: -"Leaves have very different networks of veins. They have different shapes, different sizes, different thicknesses, ‘’ said Benjamin Blonder, a doctoral student in the department of ecology and evolutionary biology.
Detailed explanation-4: -There are two classifications you need to know for tree identification: Pinnate Venation: The veins extend from the midrib to the leaf margin. Oak and cherry tree leaves have pinnate venation. Palmate Venation: The veins radiate in a fan shape from the leaf petiole.
