1 The study included the most common STDs: HPV, chlamydia, herpes simplex virus, and trichomoniasis. 2  There are approximately 15 million new cases of sexually transmitted infection each year in the United States, and 340 million worldwide.  The majority of STI's are asymptomatic (no symptoms).
Monocots have a trimerous flower, or a flower with parts in multiples of three. You can simply count the petals of a flower, and if you can divide the total number by three, you probably have a monocot. As you can see in this image of a lily, there are six petals in total, a multiple of three. Lilies are a type of monocot. In fact, many big, showy flowers like lilies, daffodils, bluebells, irises, orchids, and tulips are monocots. But flowers aren't the only way to recognize a monocot.
Count the number of petals on the flower. If there are three, or a multiple of three (six, nine, and so forth), then the flower is likely a monocot. If there are four or five petals, or a multiple of four or five, then the flower is likely a dicot.Count the stamens. The number of stamens should correlate to the number of petals to confirm your findings so far. If there are three stamens, or a multiple of three, the flower is likely a monocot.ips & Warnings. 1  Another way to tell if a flower is a monocot or dicot is to examine the seeds, if they are available. 2  Sometimes it is not possible to tell if a flower is a monocot or a dicot based on easy-to-see characteristics.
