Modification of Leaves

 

Leaf Tendrils:

 

In this case the leaf is modified into wire like coiled structure that helps the plant in climbing some objects as in pea.

 

Leaf Sgines:

 

For protection as in barberry.

 

Leaf Pitchers and Leaf Bladders:

 

These are modified forms of leaf used for catching and digesting insects. Examples include insectivorous plants such as pitcher plant, venus fly trap and bladderwort.

 

Regrettably, in the age of high technology, printed books are less and less often found in home libraries. People haven’t stopped reading books! It is simply more convenient now to use books in electronic form. Everyone has a smartphone, tablet, laptop, to which you can download several tens or hundreds of books by your favorite authors at once. On the way to work or while on vacation, a book in electronic format will always be at hand. It doesn’t take up much space in your bag or backpack. Some readers do not cheat on printed books, but most have opted for e-books.
