Jigsaw Puzzle : Plant comparison
Jigsaw Puzzles from Science Photo Library
Plant comparison
Plant comparison. Artwork showing an example of each of the two subclasses of flowering plants: a dicotyledon (left) and monocotyledon (right). These names are derived from the number of leaves that cover the seed, which is two and one respectively. The root system of a dicotyledon consists of a primary (tap) root with smaller secondary roots. A monocotyledon has fibrous roots. The leaves of the dicotyledon are usually broad, bear small paired appendages (stipules) at the base of the leaf stalk and have a radiating vein structure. In comparison the monocotyledon leaf has parallel veins and is oblong in shape

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a fascinating comparison between two subclasses of flowering plants: dicotyledons and monocotyledons. On the left, we have a striking example of a dicotyledon, distinguished by its broad leaves adorned with small paired appendages called stipules at the base of the leaf stalk. The veins on these leaves radiate outwards, creating an intricate network that aids in nutrient transportation. Additionally, dicotyledons possess a primary (tap) root accompanied by smaller secondary roots. In contrast, the monocotyledon on the right exhibits distinct characteristics of its own. Its oblong-shaped leaves feature parallel veins that run along their length. Furthermore, instead of having a taproot system like dicots, monocots boast fibrous roots which spread out extensively to absorb water and nutrients from the soil. This visually stunning artwork not only highlights the aesthetic diversity within nature but also provides valuable insights into botanical differences among angiosperms – or flowering plants – specifically focusing on their leaf structures and root systems. It serves as a reminder of how intricately diverse our natural world is and how each plant species has adapted uniquely to thrive in various environments.
