Q.Assertion: In reticulate venation, veinlets are repeatedly branched and form a complex network. Reason: In parallel venation, the veins run parallel to each other within a lamina.

Dicot leaves show reticulate venation, so the answer is (B).

Venation is the arrangement of veins in the leaf blade:

• Reticulate venation — veins form a net-like mesh; typical of dicots (e.g. mango, peepal). …

Dicot leaves show reticulate (net-like) venation.

Venation is the arrangement of veins and veinlets in the lamina of a leaf. In dicotyledonous plants the veinlets branch and rejoin to form a network, so the venation is called reticulate. (Monoco …

Dicot leaves show reticulate (net-like) venation.

Venation refers to the arrangement of veins and veinlets in the lamina of a leaf. In dicotyledonous plants, the veinlets form a network, so the venation is called reticulate. (In contrast, monocots typically show para …

Venation describes how veins are arranged in a leaf blade; it is mainly of two types, reticulate and parallel.

The arrangement of veins and veinlets within the leaf lamina is termed venation. There are two main types: in reticulate venation, the veins form a net-like network across the lamina — typical of dicotyledonous plants (e.g. china rose leaf). In parallel venation, the veins run parallel to one another within the lamina — typical of monocotyledonous …

The midrib is the thick central vein of a leaf that runs from the petiole to the leaf tip and gives rise to the smaller lateral veins/veinlets.

A typical leaf's lamina (blade) is traversed by a network of veins and veinlets that make up the venation pattern; the single most prominent of these, running centrally along the leaf's length, is the midrib.
