Summary Introduction
Introduction: A leaf is a portion of the plant that is generally green in color. The leaf is attached through stalk or stem. The leaf of the plant is involved in photosynthesis that brings the nutrients that are required for the plants. Veins carry nutrients and water inside the leaf. The leaves of plants are involved in the process of photosynthesis that carries it required nutrients.
