Question 1

Match each description of a plant characteristic to the letter that represents the plant group that typically has that characteristic. Each letter may be used once, more than once, or not at all.
-leaf veins in a netlike array

Accepted Answer

Eudicots typically have leaf veins in a netlike array, distinguishing them from monocots, which usually have parallel leaf veins.

Question 2

Match each description of a plant characteristic to the letter that represents the plant group that typically has that characteristic. Each letter may be used once, more than once, or not at all.
-vascular bundles organized in a ring in ground tissue

Accepted Answer

Vascular bundles organized in a ring in ground tissue is a characteristic typically found in eudicots. Monocots, on the other hand, usually have their vascular bundles scattered throughout the ground tissue.

Question 3

Match each description of a plant characteristic to the letter that represents the plant group that typically has that characteristic. Each letter may be used once, more than once, or not at all.
-vascular tissues

Accepted Answer

Vascular tissues, which include xylem and phloem for the transport of water and nutrients, are characteristic of both eudicots and monocots, which are two major groups of flowering plants.

Question 4

Match each description of a plant characteristic to the letter that represents the plant group that typically has that characteristic. Each letter may be used once, more than once, or not at all.
-reproduction using seeds

Accepted Answer

Eudicots and monocots both reproduce using seeds, which is a characteristic of flowering plants (angiosperms).

Question 5

Match each description of a plant characteristic to the letter that represents the plant group that typically has that characteristic. Each letter may be used once, more than once, or not at all.
-floral parts in fours or fives (or multiples of four or five)

Accepted Answer

Eudicots typically have floral parts in fours or fives (or multiples thereof), distinguishing them from monocots, which usually have floral parts in threes or multiples of three.

Question 6

Match each description of a plant characteristic to the letter that represents the plant group that typically has that characteristic. Each letter may be used once, more than once, or not at all.
-one cotyledon

Accepted Answer

Monocots typically have one cotyledon, which is a significant feature distinguishing them from eudicots, which usually have two cotyledons.

Question 7

Match each description of a plant characteristic to the letter that represents the plant group that typically has that characteristic. Each letter may be used once, more than once, or not at all.
-lack of meristems

Accepted Answer

Meristems are regions of plant growth where cells can divide and differentiate into various tissues. Eudicots and monocots, which are classifications of flowering plants, both have meristems. The absence of meristems is characteristic of non-flowering plants or simpler organisms, not eudicots or monocots.

Question 8

Match each description of a plant characteristic to the letter that represents the plant group that typically has that characteristic. Each letter may be used once, more than once, or not at all.
-parallel leaf veins

Accepted Answer

Parallel leaf veins are a characteristic feature of monocots.

Question 9

Match each description of a plant characteristic to the letter that represents the plant group that typically has that characteristic. Each letter may be used once, more than once, or not at all.
-floral parts in threes (or multiples of three)

Accepted Answer

Monocots typically have floral parts in threes or multiples of three, distinguishing them from eudicots, which often have floral parts in fours or fives.
