    1. Comparing Monocot and Dicot Pants Objective: 1. To explain what a monocot and dicot plant is To describe the differences between monocots and dicots in terms of their structures To explain how one plant type evolved from the other

    2. Angiosperms can be divided into two classes: Monocotyledons (monocots) and Dicotyledons (dicots) Cotyledon: A seed leaf that stores carbohydrates (food) for the seedling (baby plant). Is often the first photosynthetic organ of a young seedling.

    3. Go Discover… Find out what a monocot plant and a dicot plant is. Create a table to compare the structures of these two classes of plant. In your table you should compare seeds, stem, flower, leaf and root. Page 397 in your text book will help you. There are other pages that may be helpful as well. You will need to look these up. The micro-slide-viewer contains a slides with some great images of monocot and dicot structures.

    7. Stem

    8. Root

    10. Plenary What is a cotyledon? How many cotyledons do monocots have? How many do dicots have? What is different about the arrangement of the vascular bundles in monocot and dicot stems? What is different about the arrangement of the veins in monocot and dicot leaves? How is the seed different in a monocot and dicot plant?
