Depending on how many cotyledons an angiosperm has, it is classified as either a monocot or a dicot. A single, substantial, shield-shaped cotyledon called the scutellum makes up the seed of monocots. A grain of wheat or maize has a scutellum that resembles the cotyledons in other monocotyledons. Therefore "cotyledons" is the proper response.
