One cotyledon; shooting structure is called coleoptile: dicot: bean that has two seeds; different glycemic index. Flowering plants: two main groups: monocots: mainly be one cotyledon ; veins usually parallel, eudicots (dicots): mainly be two cotyledons ; veins usually netlike. Monocot: seedlings each have one cotyledon (seed leaves); in monocots, the cotyledon often remains within the confines of the seed. Eudicot: seedlings each have two cotyledons (seed leaves) (see figure 35. 2. Perform most metabolic functions of the plants: photosynthesis and secretion, food storage, photosynthesis, collenchyma.
