The bright yellow primary or central vein (midrib) runs diagonally through this photograph of a large green leaf sprinkled with the morning dew. The broad green blades of the leaf collect sunlight to make energy that gets water from the ground and carbon dioxide from the air to produce food for the plant, a process called photosynthesis. Helping make that food as well as make the leaves green is a chemical in the leaves, chlorophyll.
