SSC CGL 2021 PYQ — Question 45

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. Venation.

Venation is the pattern of veins in the blade of a leaf.

• Venation describes the way veins are arranged in leaves.
• Within each leaf, the vascular tissue creates veins.
• The venation pattern refers to how the veins are arranged in a leaf. The veins in monocot leaves are parallel to one another.
• Parallel venation is a characteristic of such leaves.
• Bananas, grass, and wheat, for example.
• Veins and veinlets in dicot leaves are dispersed erratically across the entire lamina, creating a network.
• Mango and peepal, for example.
