What are some of the features that you could use to distinguish a dicot from a monocot? List contrasting features for the roots. stems, and leaves. The graph is pretty easy I just don\'t have time to find some differences. For the Roots, please list 2 internal differences between monocot and dicot stems, same goes for the roots as well. I only need one external and internal difference between monocot and dicots for the leaves section.

Solution

Root differences of dicots vs monocots: Internal- Apical meristem developed from radicle in dicots with elongated root system

Adventitious root system is present in monocots

Apical meristematic tissues present No apical meristamic tissue

Stem differences:

Scattered vascular bundles can be seen in monocots where as “ring shaped vascular bundles” can be seen

Leaves:                                      

There are parallel leaf veins in monocots where reticulated veination in dicots

Amphistomatic stomata distribution in monocots where internal stomata distribution is hypostomatic

Other differences:

In monocots, the vascular bundles are distributed or scattered throughout the ground tissues in an asymmetric manner. In roots of both dicots and monocots, the xylem and phloem are arranged in center. The pollen gars have a single furrow in monocots but 3 furrows in dicots. Monocots have fibrous root system & monocot leaves (Alium cepa) possess a single venation
