Answer:

Embryo with single cotyledon

Step-by-step explanation:

Monocot, also known as monocotyledonous plants are a group of flowering plants (angiosperms) that possess one seed-leaf or cotyledon, which is contrary to the two-seed leaves possessed by dicots. Monocot plants have other characteristics that differentiate them from dicots as follows:

- Their flower parts are in multiples of three.

- It's major leaf veins are reticulated

- Pollen with single furrow or pore

However, the embryo of monocots are with a single cotyledon.
