DENDROLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The seeds containing a single cotyledon is called a monocot seed, which germinates to produce a monocotyledonous plant. As the monocot seed germinates, it produces a single leaf on the shoot. Examples: wheat, rice and corn.

Detailed explanation-2: -Not all plants have cotyledons, which means they are neither monocots or dicots. Plants that form spores, such as ferns, and plants that form cones, as with most evergreens, do not produce cotyledons. However, all plants that flower can be divided into either monocots or dicots.

Detailed explanation-3: -Those with one cotyledon are known as monocotyledons or monocots. Monocots include daylilies, orchids, palms, bananas, pineapples, and corn. Most have leaves with parallel veins and flower parts in multiples of three.
