Monocots and dicots are two major groups of flowering plants (angiosperms) that diverged from a common ancestor. Dicots are believed to have evolved first, with monocots emerging later in the evolutionary timeline. The distinction between these two groups is part of the broader evolution of angiosperms, which is thought to have begun around 140 million years ago. Therefore, dicots are generally considered the more primitive group compared to monocots.
1. Monocots have one cotyledon in the embryo and dicots have two 2. Vascular bundles in monocots are closed in dicots these are open 3. Leaves have parallel venation in monocots & reticulate in dicots 4. Floral parts are in multiple of three in monocots, and five or their multiple in dicots.
dicot
All onions are monocots.
Fibrous roots are common in monocots, which are plants with one seed leaf, rather than dicots, which have two seed leaves. Monocots typically have fibrous root systems that spread out close to the surface to absorb water and nutrients efficiently.

no peanuts are not monocots. since they contain two cotyledons, they are dicots
The two types of cotyledon are monocotyledons (monocots) and dicotyledons (dicots). Monocots have one cotyledon in their seeds, while dicots have two cotyledons. These structures provide nutrients to the emerging seedling before it can photosynthesize on its own.
No, carnations are dicots, not monocots. Dicots usually have flower parts in fours or fives, while monocots have flower parts in threes.
