For the following descriptions - indicate whether they describe a monocot or a eudicot.
-parallel veins in leaves
-root system is a taproot
-flower organs in groups of 4 or 5
-vascular bundles scattered in the stem
-capable of woody growth
-pollen grain with three openings
-embryo with one cotyledon
Primary and secondary thickening meristems are mostly found in
1. ferns
2. gymnosperms
3. dicots
4. monocots
5. uniformly found in all of the above
Which of these is an incorrect contrast between monocots (statedfirst) and eudicots (stated second)?a. one cotyledon—two cotyledonsb. leaf veins parallel—net veinedc. pollen with three pores—pollen with one pored. flower parts in threes—flower parts in fours or fivese. All of these are correct.
