. The elements of botany embracing organography, histology, vegetable physiology, systematic botany and economic botany ... together with a complete glossary of botanical terms. Botany. 170 SYSTEMATIC bundle of each leaf (Fig. 282) passes deep towards the centre, and the lateral bundles (Fig. 282) curve downwards in the peripheral portions of the stem. There are many deviations from this type, especially by the bundles having lateral anastomosing branches. The fibro-vascular bundles (or veins) in the leaf are approximately ^^ â parallel, passing usually from the base to the apex (Fig. 283). The flower in the great major- ity of cases in the Monocotyledones, or Monocotyls, is three-parted; that is, each whorl consists of three mem- bers. As an example of the structure of the seed, the slightly magnified section of a grain of Lidian Corn is given (Fig. 284). The germina- tion of the seed is shown in the accompanying figure (Fig. 285). The sub-class is represented by about fifty natural orders, of which the following are interesting or important: I. Graminese. The Grasses are herbaceous, or rarely woody, plants, with round, jointed, and (mostly) hollow stems, which have alternate two-ranked leaves. The leaf below is a split sheath (Fig. 286); above, a narrow, elongated part, called the lamina; and at the junction of these two there is a.
