Question

Dicotyledon seeds have two seed leaves.

(a) True

(b) False

The question was posed to me during an interview.

This intriguing question comes from Flowering Plants Morphology topic in section Morphology of Flowering Plants of Biology – Class 11

Answer 1

The correct choice is (a) True

Easy explanation: Dicotyledon seeds have two seed leaves. The word cotyledon means seed leaves. When a dicotyledonous seed germinates it initially gives rise to two seed leaves whereas in monocotyledonous seed only a single leaf arises.
