Secondary growth is important because as larger plants grow, more vascular tissue (responsible for transport of water, sugar and minerals) is needed to keep up with the constant growing of the plant. Limit the vascular tissue and the plant will have insufficient amount of water and sugar conduit for transportation throughout.

∙ 12y agoThe cells of the pith or medullary rays which lie in between the edges of the cambium within the vascular bundle, divide accordingly and form a layer of cambium across the medullary rays. The newly formed cambium connects the fassicular cambium found within the vascular cambium and thus a formation of a cambium ring is completed.

What is cork cell?
Cork cambium (pl. cambia or cambiums) is a tissuefound in many vascular plants as part of theperiderm. The cork cambium is a lateralmeristem and is responsible for secondary growth that replaces the epidermis in roots and stems. It is found in woody and many herbaceous dicots,gymnosperms and some monocots, which usually lack secondary growth.
