Simple versus Compound Leaves
This video presents the same text shown beside it, spoken and on screen. It adds nothing the text does not say.
State
A simple leaf has one undivided or lobed blade; a compound leaf divides fully into leaflets attached to a shared rachis.
Show
A banana leaf is simple and undivided; a locust leaf is compound, its blade split into many leaflets along the rachis.
Watch for
A compound leaf's leaflets are not themselves separate leaves — the whole cluster counts as one leaf at its base.
