Question 4 • TPS EdX Biology

Citrus trees are angiosperms and dicots. Which characteristic would citrus trees have?

Answer
A
herbaceous or woody stems
B
one cotyledon in the seed
C
flower petals in multiples of three
D
parallel veins on the leaves

Explanation

Dicots typically have two cotyledons, netlike leaf veins, and flower parts in multiples of four or five. Angiosperms include both herbaceous and woody plants, and citrus trees have woody stems. Therefore, the characteristic is herbaceous or woody stems; one cotyledon, petals in threes, and parallel veins are typical monocot traits.
