I have a school project due- This isn't nececarily biochem, but it is biology... Do we have any ecologists here who can help designate If this leaf is a pin oak or red oak? Having a bit of a problem, will scan leaf and post a picture if anyone can help... Thanks!

Your better off to just post the damn picture. That way if someone stumbles over it you get your answer right away.
