The cotyledon is the part of the embryo that lies in the seed of a plant. The sugar is the plant's food.The cotyledon encourages leaf growth in a plant's early stages of life. When cotyledons become new green leaves, the cotyledons raise over ground level.

Such is the changing world of plant systematics. The two major classifications include monocots and eudicots, and there are some basal angiosperms that fit into neither category.The definition of monocots remains unchanged from lessons learned in elementary...

Dicots have one main tap root. Monocots usually produce flower parts in multiples of three. They have many fibrous roots sprouting from nodes on the plant's stem. Monocot leaves are usually long and strap-like, with veins running parallel the length of...

Monocotyledons or monocots are a class of plants comprising of a single cotyledon or seed leaf emerging from the seed upon germination. There are over 60,000 varieties of registered daylilies that appear in a wide variety of shades, ranging from pristine...

Descending along the trunk, they cling tightly to the trunk, integrate with it and contribute to its radial growth. * Being a monocotyledon, it does not display any annual or growth rings so the age of the tree can only be estimated by the number of branching...

Monocots, as the name implies, have only one seed leaf. Among the best-known dicots are roses, sunflowers, cacti, and apple and cherry trees. The three largest angiosperm families make up the bulk of angiosperm types.

Dicots sometimes have woody stems, as seen on plants such as oak trees and roses. As a stem grows in diameter, new vascular bundles form at the stem's edge and new parenchyma cells are created.

Planting a flower garden can involve choosing plants with different flower shapes and size. Often called "zonal geraniums," cultivated pelargoniums are perennial in USDA zones 10 and 11 and grow as vigorous annuals throughout the country till frost.

This plant was a member of the family Hyacinthaceae, a family with a lot of well known bulbs in it, and many of them somewhat succulent in nature.However, recently most of the members of this family have been moved to a new family, Scilloideae, including...

Most flowers it turns out are way too complex for me to see if they have multiples of 3 or more... In these plants, the transporation units are pretty randomly spread throughout the trunk from its center to the edges.
