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 angiosperm and vascular plants?

Angiosperms are a type of vascular plants that produce flowers and fruits. Vascular plants, on the other hand, are plants with specialized tissues that help transport water and nutrients throughout the plant. In essence, all angiosperms are vascular plants, but not all vascular plants are angiosperms.


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.


What two characteristics do all angiosperms share?

Seeds are enclosed in fruits. Leaves are usually broad and flat. Flowers are presentbut cones are absent. Fertilization Is double. Angiosperms are divided into two major groups .... 1. Monocotyledons 2. Dicotyledons In angiosperms, the reproductive structures are located in the flower, which consists of highly modified leaves.

Do Woody plants lack secondary growth?

No, woody plants do not lack secondary growth. Secondary growth is the process by which plants increase their girth through the production of secondary tissues such as wood and bark, which woody plants exhibit. This growth allows woody plants to increase in size and longevity.

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).
