| | LEAF - LoveToKnow Article on LEAF |
 | | The cause of the fall of the leaf in cold climates seems to be deficiency of light and heat in winter, which causes a cessation in the functions of the cells of the leaf. | | | The increase in length of the leaf by growth at the apex is usually of a limited nature. | | | A large proportion of the water which ascends to the leaf acts merely as a carrier for the other raw food materials and is got rid of from the leaf in the form of water vapour through the stomatathis process is known as transpiration. |
