Solution:

The petiole is a long thin flexible structure that holds leaf blades and flutter in wind. Sometimes petiole becomes tendril and leaf-like. A stipule is a small leaflike appendage to a leaf, typically borne in pairs at the base of the leaf stalk. Lamina is the leaf blade. The swollen leaf base is known as pulvinus.
