Question

with reference to number of seeds , venation in the leaves and types of roots,differentiate between monocotyledons and dicotyledons plant​

Answer 1

Answer:

1) Monocots can be defined as the plants with the seed having only one cotyledon, and the plant is called as monocotyledons, while plants with the seed having two cotyledons are called as dicots, and the plant is called as dicotyledons.

2) Another distinguishable feature is their roots which are adventitious or fibrous type in the monocots, while in the dicots they are radicle or tap root type.

3) The isobilateral leaves of monocots show parallel venation and the stomata is present on both upper as well as on lower surface (amphistomatous). The leaves of the dicots are dorsiventral and show reticulate or net-like venation, and the stomata are present on one surface of the leaves (epistomatous). The vascular bundles in stems are scattered throughout, in monocots, though it is arranged in a ring-like pattern in dicots.
