a girl is making a leaf collection. What are three properties she could use to classify the leaves?

Are you sure you asked the question enough times?  Maybe you want to ask it again, just to make sure someone reads it at least twice, and answers once.\n\n1. Fruit leaf\n2. Vegetable leaf\n3. Table leaf

There are many types of grasses and here are there scientific names.

Yes. You can use this website to identify many trees with leaf shapes similar to many kinds of maples such as sugar maples and silver maples.

go to google images and type "different types of house plants"\nsee what you get

Plants, i think. look in a dictionnary or online.

With a plant identification guide...either a book or webpage.  Just match up the leaf shape and tree appearance.

How about more details, like what grade is she in? what subject?

i can give u a correct description.\nclassification, in biology, the systematic categorization of organisms into a coherent scheme. The original purpose of biological classification, or systematics, was to organize the vast number of known plants and animals into categories that could be named, remembered, and discussed. Modern classification also attempts to show the evolutionary relationships among organisms (see the table entitled Examples of Systematic Classification). A system based on categories that show such relationships is called a natural system of classification; one based on categories assigned only for convenience (e.g., a classification of flowers by color) is an artificial system. \n\nModern classification is part of the broader science of taxonomy, the study of the relationships of organisms, which includes collection, preservation, and study of specimens, and analysis of data provided by various areas of biological research. Nomenclature is the assigning of names to organisms and to the categories in which they are classified.\n\nA modern branch of taxonomy, called numerical taxonomy, uses computers to compare very large numbers of traits without weighting any type of trait : in contrast to the traditional view that certain characteristics are more significant than others in showing relationships. For example, the structure of flower parts is considered more significant than the shape of the leaves in flowering plants because leaf shape appears to evolve much more quickly. Much of the science of taxonomy has been concerned with judging which traits are most significant. If new evidence reveals a better basis for subdividing a taxon than that previously used, the classification of the group in question may be revised. A considerable number of classification changes as well as insights in recent years have been the result of comparisons of nucleic acid (genetic material) sequences of organisms.\n\ndo u want to know what is binomial nomenclature?\nThe present system of binomial nomenclature identifies each species by a scientific name of two words, Latin in form and usually derived from Greek or Latin roots. The first name (capitalized) is the genus of the organism, the second (not capitalized) is its species. The scientific name of the white oak is Quercus alba, while red oak is Quercus rubra. The first name applies to all species of the genus : Quercus is the name of all oaks : but the entire binomial applies only to a single species. Many scientific names describe some characteristic of the organism (alba=white; rubra=red); many are derived from the name of the discoverer or the geographic location of the organism. Genus and species names are always italicized when printed; the names of other taxa (families, etc.) are not. When a species (or several species of the same genus) is mentioned repeatedly, the genus may be abbreviated after its first mention, as in Q. alba. Subspecies are indicated by a trinomial; for example, the southern bald eagle is Haliaeetus leucocephalus leucocephalus, as distinguished from the northern bald eagle, H. leucocephalus washingtoniensis.\n\nThe advantages of scientific over common names are that they are accepted by speakers of all languages, that each name applies only to one species, and that each species has only one name. This avoids the confusion that often arises from the use of a common name to designate different things in different places (for example, see elk), or from the existence of several common names for a single species. There are two international organizations for the determination of the rules of nomenclature and the recording of specific names, one for zoology and one for botany. According to the rules they have established, the first name to be published (from the work of Linnaeus on) is the correct name of any organism unless it is reclassified in such a way as to affect that name (for example, if it is moved from one genus to another). In such a case defin

Don't forget that your samples must be small and THIN (flat). If the sample is too big/thick then no light will pass through to the lenses.\nMost things are best viewed after mounting them in a drop of water under a cover slip.\n\n1. Crystals of salt, icing sugar, etc.\n2. Fibres of cotton, wool, synthetics, string, etc.\n3. The torn edges of paper.\n4. The individual dots of colour from non-glossy pictures. You will probably have to add a bit more illumination from above the sample for this by shining a light onto it (e.g. desk light).\n5. Leaf 'skeletons'.\n6. Living leaves - from a potted plant (e.g. a 'spider plant') bend the leaf and clip it between two slides. (Additional top illumination needed.)\n7. The thin 'skin' from between the 'leaves' of an onion (onion epidermis).\n8. The edge of a razor blade or sharp knife (with top illumination).\n9. Strands of spider webs.\n10. Dust.\n11. By gently using a potato peeler you can make thin sections of all sorts of plant parts. Usually only the very edges of these sections are suitable for viewing. You might like to stain plant samples with a drop of iodine (use instead of water) under the cover slip.\n12. If you have a wood-plane then make thin samples of different types of wood.\n\n(P.S. Forgive my UK spelling)

Leaves have characteristics for many reasons. It helps them survive cause of the shape of the leaf. Over the years, the leaves have discovered the easiest way for water to get to the tips of the leaves, and throughout the leaf itself. Some leaves excrete some gooey substance so no predators will eat their leaves. They shape themselves for water intake, some have a waxy substance on them for safety, some are simple, others are very detailed. I still don't know why they take the shape they do. The leaves will change colour according to the season, because basically they get tired from constantly performing photosynthesis all during the summer. So, in fall they take a break, and stop photosynthesizing. That's why they change colour in the seasons. It really is quite interesting. I will let you know the pages I used. One is a little kids site, and the other is an adults site. GOOD LUCK AND GOD BLESS YOU!

it is a leaf that could come from a thing that maybe you might water...hmmm
