Question

In the deciduous tree, waste is stored in
(a)Leaves
(b)Barks
(c)Roots
(d)None of the above

Answer 1

They are thin, flat organs responsible for photosynthesis and also transpiration in the plants. It develops laterally at the node. It is a crucial part of the shoot system and it originates from shoot apical meristems.

Complete answer:
Deciduous trees are those that shed their leaves once in a year and new leaves are grown. These are also known as the evergreen trees. They store their waste in old and decaying leaves so that the waste gets removed as the leaves shed. When leaves drop down from a deciduous tree they include crystals of waste materials that have built up as a result of metabolism.

Additional Information: Types of Leaves are-
There are two broad categories of leaves that are simple and compound, which are further classified into different groups supporting their shape, size, their arrangements on the stem, leaves of flowering and non-flowering plants, and various other physical attributes.
The two different types of leaves found during a plant are-
Simple Leaf: When one lamina is connected to the most stem by a petiole, the leaf is claimed to be simple. A simple leaf could also be incised to any depth but not right down to the midrib or petiole. Eg. Guava leaves
Compound Leaf: A compound leaf may be made from two or more leaflets. The midrib in a compound leaf is branched into different leaflets and is joined by a single petiole. For eg. Pea, palm leaves.
So, the correct answer is 'Leaves'

Note: -Leaves are found at the nodes of the stem and contain the photosynthetic pigment chlorophyll.
-There are three main parts of a leaf are Leaf base, leaf lamina, and petiole.
-They perform the function of photosynthesis and help with the removal of excess water from the aerial parts of the plant.
-They are adapted in the form of spines, tendrils, hooks, and scales and assist them to adapt to numerous environments.
