RE: class dicotyledones
Class Dicotyledones, also known as dicots, is a classification of flowering plants (angiosperms) that have two embryonic seed leaves or cotyledons during their initial stage of development. This class of plants usually have features such as leaves with net-like veins, flower parts in multiples of four or five, and the presence of a main root. Examples of Dicotyledones include roses, sunflowers, and apple trees. This class has now been largely replaced in modern classification by the clade Eudicots, though some botanists still use the Dicotyledones categorization.

RE: salt marsh
A salt marsh is a coastal ecosystem in the upper coastal intertidal zone, typically located between land and brackish or saltwater environments such as lagoons, estuaries, and tidal creeks. It is dominated by dense stands of salt-tolerant plants such as herbs, grasses, or low shrubs which are regularly flooded by the tides. Salt marshes play a significant role in the aquatic food web and the delivery of nutrients to coastal waters, and they also provide crucial habitat for many species of birds, fish, and invertebrates.
