The plant with compound leaves
(A) Rose
(B) Mango
(C) Jaman
(D) Banana

Explanation

Solution

Leaves are thin and flat structure mainly involved in photosynthesis. It is a part of the shoot system and develops laterally from the node. A leaf has mainly three parts which involve Leaf Base, Petiole, and Lamina. The arrangement of the vein in leaves is called Venation which includes Reticulate Venation and Parallel Venation.

Complete answer:
Leaves are categorized broadly into two types which involve Simple leaves and Compound leaves. They are further subclassified into different groups based on size, shape, arrangement. A simple leaf is the type of leaf in which a single lamina is connected to the main stem with the help of a petiole. They may be incised to any depth but not below midrib or petiole. Examples include Guava leaves.
A compound leaf is the type of leaf which is made up of two or more leaflets. The midrib is branched into different leaflets, which are then connected by a single petiole. Examples include Palm leaves. The Compound leaf is then grouped into different groups which involve Palmately Compound Leaves and Pinnately Compound Leaves.
In Rose, the leaf blade is divided into several leaflets that are attached to the common stalk. So, Rose has compound leaves. In Mango, Jaman, Banana, leaves consist of a single blade, so the leaves are simple. So, the correct answer is option (A).

Note: Palmately Compound leaves have leaflets that are attached to the tip of the petiole. They may be Unifoliate, Bifoliate, Trifoliate, Quadrifoliate, Multifoliate basin on the number of leaflets. The second group involves Pinnately Compound leaves in which the midrib has numerous leaflets connected to a common axis. They may be Unipinnate, Bipinnate, Tripinnate, Decompound, Parapinnate, and Imparipinnate based on the arrangement of leaflets on the common axis.
