Answers
Answer:
Count the number of petals on the flower. If there are three, or a multiple of three (six, nine, and so forth), then the flower is likely a monocot. If there are four or five petals, or a multiple of four or five, then the flower is likely a dicot. Count the stamens.

Monocots include most of the bulbing plants and grains, such as agapanthus, asparagus, bamboo, bananas, corn, daffodils, garlic, ginger, grass, lilies, onions, orchids, rice, sugarcane, tulips, and wheat.Nov 16, 2018

Answer
We identify plants by looking at their external characteristics such as seeds, roots, leaves, flowers, pollen, stems and vascular bundles. Based on the differences, they are placed in one of these two groups. There are some specific characteristics that help us identify the plant as a monocot or a dicot.
