Rose leaf. Coloured scanning electron micrograph (SEM) of the edge of a serrated leaf of a Garden Rose,Rosa sp. The term "serrated" refers to the sharply cut indentations in the margin of a leaf,as found in the Garden Rose and certain other plants. Leaf shapes,including their edges,are important features in the recognition of plants. Serrated leaves,like thorns,may play a role in protecting the plant against being eaten by herbivores. The raised structures on this leaf are the leaf veins. Magnification: x10 at 6x9cm size. Magnification: x31 at 13x25cm size | |
