Question: what is the difference between monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plants?
Answer: Over 250,000 species of herbs, shrubs and woody plants are found in angiosperms. Monocot and dicot differ in their roots, stem, leaves, flowers and seeds. The main difference between monocot and dicot is that monocot contains a single cotyledon in its embryo whereas dicot contains two cotyledons in its embryo.
