.黃印通、林淑英-脈之絡 ( Pulse of the Network

動物有血管能輸送養分與水分，植物也有輸送養分與水分的管道。本圖可清楚看見雙子葉植物的網狀葉脈，在大支脈之下又連結了許多小支脈，這許多支脈的形成與功用有如布滿人體全身的血管。無法享受烈日的蜘蛛，葉背恰好是牠最佳的傘。

Both plants and animals have networks for transporting nutrients and water. You can clearly see the web shaped outline of the leaf veins on this Dictyledon plant.  Smaller veins connect to the branch veins forming into a functional network comparable to those of human’s blood vessels. Unable to bear the ferocity of sunlight, a spider has sought shelter under its self-made leafy umbrella.
