Development
  • Development is a term that includes all changes that an organism goes through during its life cycle from germination of the seed to senescence.
  • Plants follow different pathways in response to environment or phases of life to form different kinds of structures. 
  • This ability is called plasticity, e.g., heterophylly in cotton, coriander and larkspur. In such plants, the leaves of the juvenile plant are different in shape from those in mature plants.
  • On the other hand, the difference in shapes of leaves produced in air and those produced in water in buttercup also represent the heterophyllous development due to environment.
