Because God made it that way… just kidding. A monocot refers to any plant that has vascular bundles scattered around that stem whereas dicots have grouped vascular bundles. Monocots also have complete flowers or both male and female flowers on the same plant whereas dicots have incomplete flowers or only a male or female flower on one plant. Monocots can self pollinate, dicots require two plants for sexual reproduction.
