A flowering plant whose seeds have two leaves

Real World Example

Imagine you're trying to assemble a piece of furniture and you discover it has two main pieces that must come together to form the foundation. Much like these two pieces that create a stable base, a dicot plant's seeds also have two embryonic leaves, or cotyledons, that provide initial nutrients and support for the seedling. Just as the two pieces of furniture are essential for a stable structure, the two cotyledons in a dicot seed serve as the foundational support, ensuring the young plant has the necessary resources to grow.
