It means 3 or more leaves at each node.
Whorled means that there are three or more leaves at each (single) node on a plant's stem. It's a type of phyllotaxy (leaf arrangement).
It has paralled leaves and yes it is a monocot.:)
Among the three types of leaf arrangement, the whorled, the opposite and the alternate, the whorled type exposes the leaves to less sunlight since it has two or more leaves borne at each node.
The phyllotaxy of a mango is usually 3/8 but as the leaves are arranged very closely at the tips they appear to be whorled.
whorled.

The answer is: True
for plato its a:true
It is when there is one or more leaves coming from the same node(the swelling point on the stem/stalk)
They shouldn't. Whorled leaves would all have their petioles attached at the same level on the branch. Although oak leaves are called "alternate," implying that every other leaf petiole is attached on the opposite side of the twig or branch from the one above, it's not quite that simple. Oak leaves generally are arranged so they attach at one of five locations if the twig or branch is viewed end-on. From a distance this arrangement can appear whorled, but if you look closely from the side you'll see that the attachment points for the leaf petioles are at different levels along the twig (this becomes clearer away from the growing tip).
the 3 example of whorled are the botany plant biology and gorillas
opposite - ex. coconut tree alternate - ex. mango tree whorled - ex. petchay
