Question

Poppy seeds are monocots.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

• Angiosperms are those plants in which seeds are formed inside fruit and the sporophylls are organised into flowers. It is divided into two classes on the basis of number of embryonic seeds or cotyledons that is monocotyledons and dicotyledons.
• Dicots have two cotyledons in the seeds e.g. poppy, pea, rose, cotton. Monocots have single cotyledons in the seeds e.g. banana, cereals, grass.

Therefore, poppy seeds are dicots. The statement is false.
