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.
Lesson Summary. A monocot is a type of flowering plant that is characterized by having a single cotyledon, trimerous flowers, and parallel leaf veins. Monocots are economically important as food sources for both humans and animals, and they grow in a variety of habitats, including the tropics.esson Summary.
