Dicots

=﻿﻿ Dicots = =What are they?= ====Dicots are a group of lowering plants whose seed tpically has two embrionic leaves. There are about 199,350 species in this group. Most Dicots are distinguished by the structure of their pollen. There are few distinguishing feature between Monocots and Dicots. Mainely, Monocots' petals are in threes or in multiples of threes and Dicot petals are in groups of fours or fives.==== Dicots are found every where even in your own backyard, or at a park. Dicots are found easily anywhere that has enough sunlight. =﻿ Dicots Vs. Monocotyledons= ==== ﻿ ﻿ ﻿Many early groups of Dicots have the "monocot" charecteristics. These being the scattered vascular bundles, trimerous flowers, and non-tricolpate pollen. Several differences have also been notes between the monocots and the dicots.==== __**or pores in pollen**__ || One || Three || __**Cotyledons (leaves**__ __**in the seed)**__ || One || Two || __**of vascular**__ __**bundles in the stem**__ || Scattered || In Concentric Circles || radical || __**major leaf Vains**__ || Parrallel || Reticulate || = ﻿Dicot Plant Characteristics = ====Dicots differ in the structures of their seed, foliage, and flowers, from the monocotyledon.Dicots have two cotyledons in the seeds of Dicot plant and emerges above the soil. The leaves have vains that form a branched pattern, they are netted or webbed on the whole surface of the leaf. The vascular structure has vascular bundles consisting of two structures, the xylem and the phloem. The xylem helps transport water and minerals from the roots to other parts of the plant. The phloem helps transport food, that is made in the leaves, to the storage organs. The flowers of dicots are ussuallhy in fours or fives. Flower parts include patales, sepals and pistils, or the reproductive parts of the plant. The roots are often Fibrous and branched.====

Reproduction in Dicots
====At first the root of the radicle grows out to attach to the plant. Then a short stem then grows above the roots. Hypocotyls carries the cotyledons above the ground and then they become the first greens leaf or leaves that were sprouted. After that the rest of the plant is formed, while the development of the radicle froms the root-system.====

= =Enviroment=

====﻿The Dicot plants can range from staying small and may even last only one season or even last like a forest tree that would easily live for centuries. since these plants are flowering plants they typically grow in gardens or sunny enviroments. The Majority of the time they need calm weather enviroments. Their size is what shows what type of weather they can handle but they don't ussually live in very harsh weather conditions.====
