Dicotyledons are seedlings that come up with two little leaves, and monocotyledons come up with one. I think lilies are monocots.

Dicotyledonous plants have seeds which are made up of two leaves within the seed, such as a peanut or a string bean (ya know, how you can split those seeds in half easily?). sprouts. Monocotyledonous plants appear at first with just one leaf, because there's just one seed-leaf -- such as corn, or many types of lawn grass. The seed is one part and you can't split it into two parts that will each grow into a leaf.

Monocotyledons is a flowering plant having a single cotyledon in the seed as in grasses and lilies
Dicotyledon is a plant whose seeds divide into two seed lobes, or cotyledons, in germinating

dicot and monocot refer to the way plants grow. Cut off the top of a monocot (like a bamboo shoot) and it stops growing. Cut off the top of a dicot (like a pepper plant) and it will shoot up from one of the sides and the new shoot will take over where the top was.

the plants which has seeds with two cotyledons are dicotyledons......or they have their seeds divided in two parts (mustard) and the ones whose seeds have only one cotyledon or whose seeds are divided into one part only...(maize)
