Study Notes
Plant Classification
- Seed examination can determine if a plant is a dicot or monocot
- Dicot seeds produce dicot plants, and monocot seeds produce monocot plants
Characteristics of Dicots and Monocots
- Dicot flowers have parts in multiples of 4 or 5
- Dicot leaves have branching (net-like) veins
- Dicot stems have vascular bundles in a ring pattern
- Monocot flowers have parts in multiples of 3
- Monocot leaves have parallel veins
- Monocot stems have vascular bundles scattered throughout
Leaf and Stem Characteristics
- Dicot leaves have branching (net-like) veins
- Monocot leaves have parallel veins
- Dicot stems have vascular bundles in a ring pattern
- Monocot stems have vascular bundles scattered throughout
Angiosperms
- Angiosperms are vascular plants
- Angiosperms reproduce by seeds
- Angiosperms have seeds enclosed in fruit
Flower Parts
- Sepals are modified leaves that enclose and protect the other parts of the flower when it is still a bud
- Petals are colorful and attract birds and insects for pollination
- Stamens produce pollen
