ok can u guyz plz help me i have come up with 6 diffrenet answers to these questions and when i went to teacher she said they were all wrong so plz jus answer these




What is the diffrence betweena monocot and dicot seed?





State the functions of coteledons?

Answer 1

MONOCOTS
Embryo with single cotyledon
Pollen with single furrow or pore
Flower parts in multiples of three
Major leaf veins parallel
Stem vacular bundles scattered
Roots are adventitious
Secondary growth absent

DICOTS
Embryo with two cotyledons
Pollen with three furrows or pores
Flower parts in multiples of four or five
Major leaf veins reticulated
Stem vascular bundles in a ring
Roots develop from radicle
Secondary growth often present

and...

A cotyledon (Greek: κοτυληδών) is a significant part of the embryo within the seed of a plant. Upon germination, the cotyledon usually becomes the embryonic first leaves of a seedling. The number of cotyledons present is one characteristic used by botanists to classify the flowering plants (angiosperms). Species with one cotyledon are called monocotyledonous (or, "monocots") and placed in the Class Liliopsida. Plants with two embryonic leaves are termed dicotyledonous ("dicots") and placed in the Class Magnoliopsida.

Answer 2

A Bean Seed is a Dicot.





Dicots are seeds that have two parts, such as a bean seed. A bean seed that has soaked in water for a day or two has a soft outside covering. This is the seed coat. The seed coat would probably slip off the seed easily. The bean seed has a slit going down the middle of the seed. Inside is a tiny plant called an embryo. The two large parts of the seeds are called cotyledons. They supply the food for the young plant when it's growing. The bean seed has two parts. Therefore, it is a dicotyledon, or dicot for short.





A Corn Seed is a Monocot.





Monocots are seeds that only have one cotyledon, such as the corn seed. The corn seed does have a seed coat, but it does not slip off as easily as the bean seed. The corn seed will not split like the bean seed. It stays in one piece. One cotyledon surrounds the embryo. It is a lighter color than the rest of the seed and is called the endosperm. It provides food for the growing plant. The corn seed is a monocotyledon, or monocot. ''Mono'' comes from the Greek word monos, meaning ''one''.

Answer 3

have you tried a science book? "mono" means what? "di" means what? So the difference between a MONOcot and a DIcot seed might be what?
