... If you’ve ever used a selective herbicide, you’ve targeted plants based on whether they were monocots or dicots. For example, a broadleaf weed killer for the dandelions (dicots) in your lawn won’t hurt your grass (a monocot). Read on to find out what makes these two groups distinct. Leaves — A cotyl ...

Plant morphology
Plant morphology or phytomorphology is the study of the physical form and external structure of plants. This is usually considered distinct from plant anatomy, which is the study of the internal structure of plants, especially at the microscopic level. Plant morphology is useful in the visual identification of plants.
