Sunflower and rice trees are flowering plants. state one equation and three differences between the two plants

The correct question is;

Sunflower and rice plants are flowering plants. state one similarity and three differences between the two plants.

Answer is: One similarity between the sunflower and rice plant (paddy plant) is that both of them have a non-woody stem. The three differences between them are; sunflower plant is a dicot and has branching veins and taproots while rice plant is a monocot, and has parallel veins and fibrous roots.

Explanation:

The rice plant or paddy plant is a monocot (monocotyledon), where only one embryonic leaf (cotyledon) is present inside the seed coat. The monocots have a fibrous root system and their leaf veins are parallel.

The sunflower plant is a dicot or dicotyledon, which contains two embryonic leaves inside the seed coat. The leaf veins of dicots are branched. They have taproots. Both the sunflower plant and paddy plant can be used as food, and both have a non-woody stem.
