- B. LEAF ADAPTATION The main function of the leaf is in the processes of photosynthesis and transpiration. Apart from these functions, leaf is sometimes adapted to perform other functions. Examples of leaf adaptations are for: a) Support, which could be seen by the presence of tendrils b) Catching insects, by having cup-liked shape of hairs sensitive to touch c) Reproduction, by having meristematic cells able to produce new shoots that will go on to become new individual plants d) Food and water storage, especially found in plants living in dry areas where water is scarce (for example succulent plants, having leaf storing food and water) e) Floatation, for plants living on the water surface, their leaves in general will have air openings on tissues (used for floating) usually found on leaf petiole f) Protection, by having leaves completely or partially modified as thorns Instruction: a) 1.
