Detailed explanation-1: -Monocots develop a fibrous root system where no single root serves as the origin for all of the other roots. Dicots develop a taproot system where a single root descends from the embryo (seed) and branches out into a network of smaller roots and finally root hairs that absorb water and nutrients.

Detailed explanation-2: -The number of cotyledons differs in the two types of flowering plants, and forms the basis for the main classification of monocots and dicots. Cotyledons are the seed leaves of the embryo and contain nutrition for the embryo until it is able to grow leaves and produce food by the process of photosynthesis.

Detailed explanation-3: -The major differences between a monocot and a dicot leaf are seen in their shape, size, coloration, venation, stomata, Intercellular spaces, Motor cells, Epidermis, and mesophylls.
