Plants that have an ovule is not wrapped in an ovary such as the pine that are called Gymnospermae. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
The kinds of angiosperm | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
As for the angiosperm, there are two types of cotyledons, and cotyledons with only one part are called single cotyledons like the one shown to the left. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
The second type of cotyledon has two parts and is called Dicotyledones. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
The characteristics of single cotyledons | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
The leaf veins go straight and are parallel to each other they is called parallel veins. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
The roots of single cotyledons open like a mustache. This is called a fibrous root. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
The vascular stand of single cotyledons is made up of scattered trachea and sieve tulos that bring water and nourishment to the whole plant. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
The characteristics of Dicotyledones | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
The leaves veins open like a net from the center which is called netted venation. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
There is abig root at bottom of Dicotyledones, and thin roots can grow fromit it. These are called an axial root and a lateral root. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
The vascular strand of Dicotyledones is made up of a ring of trachea and sieve tubes. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
The characteristic of the flower of Dicotyledones | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
The petals of Dicotyledones are close together. These are called gamopetalous flowers. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
If the petals are separated,they are called schizopetalous flowers. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
