Solution

The correct option is B One
Cotyledons are important parts of the embryo found in a seed. They are the first parts that emerge from the seedling when it germinates. Monocotyledons are plants that have only one cotyledon. They also have other characteristics, such as flower parts in multiples of threes. This means they could have three, six or nine petals, or they could have sepals that make up their flowers. They also have adventitious roots. Garlic is a monocotyledon. Dicotyledons have two cotyledons.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B.
