The Monocotyledon Stem Model by United Scientific is a botany teaching model patterned on a corn stem, showing monocot anatomy in longitudinal and cross section, including the cuticle layer, epidermis, closed vascular bundles and parenchyma cells. It is injection molded, which the manufacturer notes is more durable than common fiberglass models, and includes a detailed key. Biology and botany instructors use it for plant stem anatomy lessons.
