Summary Introduction

To review:

The distance from the center where the dormant eggs would be located after a span of two years.

Introduction:

The secondary growth of the plants includes the division of the vascular cambium and the cork cambium. The cork cambium present in vascular plants, a lateral meristem producing cells internally and externally by tangential divisions, is responsible for secondary growth of plants. The vascular cambium is a tissue present in plants between xylem and phloem and produces secondary xylem on the ring’s inside and secondary phloem on the ring’s outside separating the primary xylem and phloem apart. Both of them are involved in the growth in the plant in terms of the increase in the girth of the plants.

If the shoot apical meristem gets broken off due to bad weather or damage, what type of tree growth you expect to observe in the immediate future? The tree would grow wider instead of taller. The tree would not show any growth but would stay healthy and alive. The tree roots would grow deeper within the soil, but no growth would occur above ground. The tree would grow taller instead of wider. The tree growth would be uneven in many different directions.
In a woody tree with multiple years of growth, where would you look to find the youngest xylem tissues and the youngest phloem tissues in the cross section of a cut tree trunk? immediately inside the cork cambium and immediately outside the vascular cambium, respectively а. b immediately inside and immediately outside the vascular cambium, respectively immediately inside and immediately outside the cork cambium, respectively at the very center of the trunk and immediately outside the cork cambium, respectively d.
The meristems of plants continue to grow throughout their lifetime. This is known as inde- terminate growth. Imagine a 100-year old tree, with active meristems producing new buds. leaves, and stems each year. Compare and contrast this with the growth pattern of humans: 100-year old tree growth pattern: Human growth ttern: Infancy 0-12 months Todd
