Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Monocots have a scattered pattern of tissue organization, while eudicots have a ring-like pattern of tissue organization. This is due to monocots having a single cotyledon (embryonic leaf) and eudicots having two cotyledons. This difference in embryonic leaf structure results in differences in tissue organization throughout the mature plant.
