HORTICULTURE

Detailed explanation-1: -Sunlight is absorbed by leaves of the plant. They use the absorbed sunlight during photosynthesis to make their own food.

Detailed explanation-2: -The blade of the leaf is the relatively wide, flat part of the leaf that gathers sunlight and undergoes photosynthesis. Thepetiole is the part that attaches the leaf to a stem of the plant. This occurs at a node.

Detailed explanation-3: -In most plants, the leaves are the main food factories. They capture the sun’s energy with the help of chlorophyll in the leaf cells. The chlorophyll traps and packages the energy from the light of the sun in a process called photosynthesis. Leaves usually have a large surface so they can collect the most sunlight.
