No, most monocots (which fall under flowering plants) do not undergo secondary growth due to the fact that they lack vascular cambium.

Do angiosperms have 'tracheids'?
yes. xylem tracheid occur in all plants included lower plant, gymnosperms and angiosperms. angiosperms had evolved to have another kind of xylem, that is xylem vessel, which is better in transport water, but tracheids still remain in angiosperms.
Are apple seeds angiosperm or gymnosperm?
Yes, peaches are considered angiosperms. They are the products from flowers on trees, which are angiosperms, or flowering plants.
What is the difference between primary and secondary growth?
Primary growth is the lengthening of the stem and roots. All plant growth occurs by cell division and cell elongation. Cell division occurs primarily in regions of undifferentiated cells known as meristems. Cell division in the apical meristems and subsequent elongation and maturation of the new cells produces primary growth." on the other hand, secondary growth is the result of the activity of the vascular cambium. The latter is a meristem that divides to produce secondary xylem cells on the inside of the meristem (the adaxial side) and secondary phloem cells on the outside (the abaxial side). This growth increases the girth of the plant root or stem, rather than its length, hence the phrase "secondary thickening". As long as the vascular cambium continues to produce new cells, the stem or root will continue to grow in diameter. In woody plants, this process produces wood.
Why have plants evolved secondary compounds?
Most secondary metabolites were evolved for protection from all or some potential predators, such as in the case of toxins or unpleasant tastes. In domesticated plants, humans often deliberately selected for desired qualities, making them much more abundant than in wild populations, such as with hallucinogens.
Which Cell types rarely undergo mitosis?
All cells in the nervous system do not divide or replicate and thus do not undergo mitosis.
Do Woody plants lack secondary growth?
Primary growth is responsible for elongating the plant. In woody plants, primary growth is then followed by secondary growth which allows the plant stem to increase in thickness or girth.
Difference between trees and plants?
All types of organisms in plant kingdom are called plants. Only arborial plants are called trees.
Do angioserms have flowers?
Yes, all angiosperms have flowers. In fact angiosperms are also called flowering plants.
Name for all flowering plants?

Are all palm trees angiosperms?
yes
Do angiosperms have 'tracheids'?

Which sorts of plants undergo sexual reproduction?
Any plant that produces haploid gametes can be said to undergo sexual reproduction. The process involves the "joining" of two haploid gametes to form a diploid embryo (or zygote). Pretty much all plants that produce flowers (Angiosperms) or cones (Gymnosperms) produce pollen and eggs (which are the haploid gametes).
Are apple seeds angiosperm or gymnosperm?
Yes, peaches are considered angiosperms. They are the products from flowers on trees, which are angiosperms, or flowering plants.
What two do all angiosperms share?
Two characteristics that all angiosperms share are: - Producing flowers - Producing seeds that are enclosed in fruits Source(s): My textbook.
