(monocotyledon) any of a subclass of flowering plants having an embryo containing only one seed leaf, and usually having parallel-veined leaves, flower parts in multiples of three, and no secondary growth in stems and roots, as lilies, orchids, grasses, etc.
(short for monocotyledon) [Gr. monos: one + kotyledon: a cup-shaped hollow] • Any member of the angiosperm class Monocotyledones, plants in which the embryo produces but a single cotyledon (seed leaf). Leaves of most monocots have their major veins arranged parallel to each other.
the class of plants having one cotyledon (or monocotyledonous) and parallel leaf veins, including grasses, sedges, lilies, and orchids.
( Summer Corn) - a plant with a single seed leaf or cotyledon (the primary or first growth that emerges from a seed); as opposed to a dicot, which has 2 seed leaves.
Flowering plants characterised by having a single cotyledon (seed leaf) including grasses, orchids and palms.
A flowering plant that produces one seed leaf.
A subclass of the Angiospermae; plants have one cotyledon in their seeds; parallel venation; flower parts in threes.
A flowering plant (angiosperm) that possesses one cotyledon during embryonic development. Usually has fibrous roots, flower parts in threes, and parallel veins in leaves.
A plant having a single cotyledon or seed leaf. Monocots include grasses.
The group of plants in which germinating seedlings have one cotyledon leaf, for example, corn.
a monocotyledonous flowering plant; the stem grows by deposits on its inside
Short for "Monocotyledon" which means plants with simple leaves like grass
plants with one seed leaf. Flower parts usually in multiples of three, including grasses and some flowering plants.
A subdivision of flowering plants whose members possess one embryonic seed leaf, or cotyledon.
One of the two large groups of flowering plants distinguished by the presence of of one seed leaf or cotyledons
A plant of the angiosperm group having one cotyledon.
(monocotyledon) - A seed plant having a single cotyledon or seed leaf. Includes corn, grasses, lilies, orchids, palms, etc. Leaves are mostly parallel-veined.
the smaller of the two classes of angiosperms characterized by having one cotyledon, floral parts which occur in multiples of three, and leaves that are parallel veined. Examples of monocots include lilies and trillium flowers.
A plant that has one seed leaf or "cotyledon". See Seed Starting: Germination
A monocot is a type of flowering plant (an angiosperm) whose seed has one embryonic leaf ( cotyledon). The leaves of monocots generally have parallel venation (the veins are parallel to one another). The roots of monocots are usually fibrous and the flower parts are often in multiples of three.
