Cross-section of a monocot root. Note the lack of any pattern in the arrangement of the vascular bundles. For the background to this list, see List of the vascular plants of Britain and Ireland .
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.
Rhizomes are root-like stems which usually grow laterally underground or on the ground and sprout new individuals. Most plants that produce rhizomes are monocots (grasses, bamboo, ginger, galangal, turmeric, orchids, irises, lotus); these include the families: Poaceae, Zingiberaceae, Orchidaceae, Iridaceae, and Nelumbonaceae.
Cross-section of a flax plant stem: 1. Pith 2. Protoxylem 3. Xylem I 4. Phloem I 5. Sclerenchyma 6. Cortex 7. Epidermis. In botany, a cortex is an outer layer of a stem or root in a vascular plant, lying below the epidermis but outside of the vascular bundles. [1]
Dicotyledon plantlet Young castor oil plant showing its prominent two embryonic leaves (), which differ from the adult leaves. The dicotyledons, also known as dicots (or, more rarely, dicotyls), [2] are one of the two groups into which all the flowering plants (angiosperms) were formerly divided.
F bicollateral open Cross section of celery stalk, showing vascular bundles, which includes both phloem and xylem Detail of vascular bundle: closed, collateral vascular bundles of the stem axis of Zea mays Vascular bundle in the leaf of Metasequoia glyptostroboides The vascular bundle of pine leaf showing xylem and phloem
According to the New York Times, here's exactly how to play Strands: Find theme words to fill the board. Theme words stay highlighted in blue when found.
In a vascular plant, the stele is the central part of the root or stem [1] containing the tissues derived from the procambium. These include vascular tissue , in some cases ground tissue ( pith ) and a pericycle , which, if present, defines the outermost boundary of the stele.
