The correct option is A Monocots Angiosperms or flowering plants are divided into two groups on the basis of the number of cotyledons present in the seed. Plants with seeds having a single cotyledon are called monocots whereas, those bearing seeds with two cotyledons are called dicots.
Plants that complete their life cycle in two growing seasons are called biennials.
Plants that complete their life cycle, from germination to the production of seeds, within one growing season, and then die are called annuals.
