Detailed explanation-1: -Parallel leaf venation is not a characteristic of all monocots.
Detailed explanation-2: -The roots of a monocot lack a vascular cambium (the area of secondary xylem and phloem, or secondary vascular tissue, development) and therefore have no means of secondary thickening.
Detailed explanation-3: -Monocots have only one seed leaf inside the seed coat. It is often only a thin leaf, because the endosperm to feed the new plant is not inside the seed leaf. Dicots have two seed leaves inside the seed coat. They are usually rounded and fat, because they contain the endosperm to feed the embryo plant.
Detailed explanation-4: -Monocot leaves are slender and elongated with parallel veins. Compared to other forms of veins, in parallel venation, the veins are small in size with even smaller veins connecting them. Monocots have flower parts in sets of three. Their roots are fibrous.
