Dicot


Dicots are flowering plants with two cotyledons. Their stems grow from deposits from the outside of the seed. The usual examples are trees and shrubs. Their leaves have netlike veins which causes transfering of nutrients, food and water through a mesh like pattern. A peanut is a dicot seed so i figured it would be a good idea to get a picture of peanuts.
