Give examples of two plants that have stem tendrils
Plants that have stem tendrils include:
Peas (Pisum sativum): Pea plants have stem tendrils that are modified for climbing and support. Grapes (Vitis vinifera): Grapevines also have stem tendrils that enable them to cling to nearby surfaces.
Differentiate between the monocotyledonous and dicotyledonous plant.
| Monocots: | Dicots: |
| One cotyledon in seeds. Parallel leaf veins. Scattered vascular bundles in stem. Fibrous root system. Floral parts typically in multiples of three. Pollen grains with one furrow. Examples: grasses, lilies. |
Two cotyledons in seeds. Reticulate (branching) leaf veins. Vascular bundles in a ring in the stem. Taproot system. Floral parts typically in multiples of four or five. Pollen grains with three furrows. Examples: roses, sunflowers. |
