1-c Leaf blade or lamina is the flat green surface of a leaf. It contains chlorophyll which helps to trap the sunlight for the preparation of food. 2-a Leaves of cactus are modified into spines to reduce transpiration. The stem changes into a fleshy, green, leaf-like structure and performs photosynthesis. 3-b Stomata are tiny pores that are present on the underside of the leaf. The exchange of gases and transpiration takes place through stomata. 4-d Oxygen is released by plants during photosynthesis. Animals breathe in oxygen released by plants. 1. Leaf blade c.
