Is almond a monocot

Answer 1

No. Almonds are a dicot. The 'cot' in monocot and dicot refers to cotyledon, which refers to the embryonic leaves (seed leaves) of a plant. Dicot means 2 leaves, monocot means one. Most seed producing plants fall into the dicot category, but there are many examples of monocots such as palm trees, maize (corn), grasses, an some flowers. Monocots have a different vascular structure than dicots. An almond tree for example, is a dicot, and as it grows, it creates hardwood at the center while the vascular system (water-moving system) is between the hardwood and the bark. In palm trees (moonocots) the vascular system is throughout the center of the stem. Other differences between the two types of plants are pollen shape, how roots develop, etc.
