What part of a plant is cambium?
Cambium is a tree layer between the bark and the heart of the tree trunk. It is a living part of the tree, and is partially responsible for healing any gashes in the trunk and also for transporting materials through the tree.
Is a fruit tree living or non living?
Living.
How can you tell cork cells are nonliving?
Cork cells are bark cells. The bark of every tree consists of dead cells. As dead cells, they are empty. That makes them insulation material. Cork oak trees live in an arid climate. The cork oak bark insulates the tree.
Why does bark grow on trees?
Trees have bark to protect a layer that is underneath it, the cambium. This is the only part of the tree that has living, growing cells.
is a tree living?
yes trees are living
Are logs non-living?
No a log is non living coz of itz not connected to a tree
Is a pine tree living or non-living?
A pine tree is a living thing.
Do dead xylem and phloem cells turn into cambium?
No, cambium is made up of actively dividing living cells.
Is a tree a non living thing?
Yea
Is tree sap living or nonliving?
Tree sap is a non-cellular fluid and as such is nonliving entity.
Is an apple on a tree living or nonliving?
A viable apple seed is alive. If you plant it, it will grow.
What does xylem have to do with tree rings and tree age?
Trees have two types of growth: primary growth and secondary growth. · Primary growth occurs at the tips of roots and stems and results in their growing taller or longer. · Secondary growth takes place in the vascular cambium and the cork cambium and results in an increase in the diameter of the stem or trunk of the tree. Cambium lies between the old wood and the bark of the tree. The vascular cambium is a thin layer cells that produces conducting cells - xylem and phloem. · The phloem is the outer layer, and is sometimes referred to as the inner bark. It is a food conducting tissue. The xylem is located toward the inside of the cambium layer. · The xylem is the vascular tissue through which most of the water and minerals of the tree are conducted. More secondary xylem (added toward the inside of the cambium layer) than secondary phloem (added toward the outside of the cambium layer) is produced by the cambium. The definition of wood is secondary xylem, reflected by the origin of the term 'xylem', the Greek word xylon, for wood. Another layer, the cork cambium, contributes to the expanding girth of a tree. The cork cambium is a thin layer cells that ultimately produces the bark of the tree. The bark is composed of several types of tissue produced (both toward the inside and the outside of the tree) by the cork cambium layer.
