That's probably the most generic diagram of a vertical antenna (broken into it's component 'parts') that you can find.  It does a very good job of showing those 'parts' and giving the idea behind them.  It 'shows' what happens with any/all vertical antennas, depending on how they are made of course, and the placement of the antenna.  Each of those 'components' may be in a different form/shape but they are all present in all antennas.

Not bad...
