Solution

The easiest way to classify whether a given seed is a monocot or a dicot is:
Split open or dissect the seed. If there is one single solid mass with no natural divide in it, then the seed is a monocot while if the seed splits into two halves by a natural divide present within it then it is a dicot seed.
