Detailed explanation-1: -Number of flower parts–If you count the number of petals, stamens, or other floral parts, you will find that monocot flowers tend to have a number of parts that is divisible by three, usually three or six.
Detailed explanation-2: -Monocots have a single cotyledon in their seed, parallel venation in their leaves (Figure 8.1. 2), flower parts in multiples of three (3-merous, see Figure 8.1. 3), and vascular bundles dispersed throughout the stem in concentric circles.
Detailed explanation-3: -Monocot plants are marked by seeds with a single cotyledon, parallel-veined leaves, scattered vascular bundles in the stem, the absence of a typical cambium, and an adventitious root system.
Detailed explanation-4: -Monocot flowers usually form in threes whereas dicot flowers occur in groups of four or five.
