The floral diagram is a graphic representation of the arrangement of the floral parts and the arrangement of the different whorls, in a cross section of the flower. Each whorl is represented, by convention, with a concentric circumference around the gynoecium, indicated by a cut at the level of the ovary.
basal: attached close to the base (of a plant or an evolutionary tree diagram) climber: a vine that leans on, twines around or clings to other plants for vertical support; glandular hair: a hair tipped with a secretory structure; herbaceous: not woody; usually green and soft in texture; perennial: not an annual or biennial
Allium crenulatum (Asparagales), an onion, with typical monocot perianth and parallel leaf venation Onion slice: the cross-sectional view shows the veins that run in parallel along the length of the bulb and stem. The monocots have, as the name implies, a single (mono-) cotyledon, or embryonic leaf, in their seeds.
Monocot flowers occur with parts having multiples of three; usually there are three stamen, three petals and three sepals (six tepals), and usually just one stigma. [18] However stamens in twos can be found in Cypripedioideae while single fertile stamens can be found in Philydraceae , Zingiberaceae , and as gynostemium in Orchidacaea .
Two-barrel downdraft Holley 2280 carburetor Cross-sectional schematic. A carburetor (also spelled carburettor or carburetter) [1] [2] [3] is a device used by a gasoline internal combustion engine to control and mix air and fuel entering the engine. [4]
A floral diagram is a graphic representation of the structure of a flower. It shows the number of floral organs, their arrangement and fusion. Different parts of the flower are represented by their respective symbols. Floral diagrams are useful for flower identification or can help in understanding angiosperm evolution.
English: This diagram is showing the differences between monocotyledonous plants and dicotyledonous plants. Monocots have a single cotyledon and long and narrow leaves with parallel veins. Their vascular bundles are scattered. Their petals or flower parts are in multiples of three. Dicots have two cotyledons and broad leaves with network of veins.
Of the monocot clades containing C 4 plants, the grass species use the C 4 photosynthetic pathway most. 46% of grasses are C 4 and together account for 61% of C 4 species. C 4 has arisen independently in the grass family some twenty or more times, in various subfamilies, tribes, and genera, [ 29 ] including the Andropogoneae tribe which ...
