Monocot Anatomy

Upon closer inspection of the monocot, narrow leaves, a network of very fine roots, and leaves that are often sappy with parallel veins, baby, we can see the endosperm, cotyledon and the developing embryo. The endosperm surrounds the embryo and nourishes it. The cotyledon will eventually grow to be the plants first leaves! And the embryo is the embryo, pretty self explanatory. It's basically the "baby".
