Answer 1

4. needlelike compound leaves attached staggered on the branch

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answers are:

3. broad compound leaves attached at single points on the branch

4. needlelike compound leaves attached staggered on the branch

Explanation:

The botanical name of the tree buckeye is Aesculus glabra, of the family Sapindaceae. It is commonly known as Ohio buckeye. The leaves are palmately compound and the arrangement of leaves (phyllotaxy) is the opposite type. It means leaves are arranged on the branch in the opposite direction. Leaves may be broad or needle-like. Broad leaves are attached at single points on the branch and needle-like leaves attached in a staggered manner on the branch.
