Reticulate venation is generally characteristic of:
ADicots (network of veins; in monocots veins run parallel)
BPteridophytes
CMonocots
DGymnosperms
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Dicots (network of veins; in monocots veins run parallel)
Dicotyledons typically have reticulate venation (network pattern). Monocotyledons typically have parallel venation (veins running parallel along the leaf). This is one of the classic dicot-vs-monocot distinctions.
