Do monocots have vascular cambium?
no there is no cambium present in monocot roots.
Where is most of the plant's new xylem and phloem produced?
The cambium produces the new phyloem and xylem.
What is the growth of tissue that produces phloem and xylem in the stems of woody plants?
woody stems have more xylem than soft stems
What is the difference between vascular cambium and cork cambium?
The vascular cambium adds to secondary xylem and secondary phloem while the cork cambium gives rise to cork and secondary cortex. The vascular cambium is a remnant of the apical meristem while the cork cambium is a true secondary meristem which develops outside the vascular tissues.
Why is secondary growth important to many plants?
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.
What function of of a plant's cambium layer?
produce new cells.
Do monocots have vascular cambium?
no there is no cambium present in monocot roots.
What is the function of the vascular cambium in secoundary growth?
The function of vascular cambium in dicots is to give rise to new vascular tissue.
What is the purpose of cork?
The function of cork is for insulation and water proofing. The secondary plant body consists of tissues produced by the vascular cambium, and cork cambium.
What are the xylem and phloem are separated by?
A layer of cambium cells separates the xylem and phloem tubes.
Where is most of the plant's new xylem and phloem produced?
The cambium produces the new phyloem and xylem.
What is the capital of Cambium?
Cambium is not a country.
What does the cambium produce?
Cork cambium is used for secondary growth.Cork cambium produces new dermal tissues that replace the epidermal tissues from protoderm. Cork cambium is consisted of cork cambium and cork.
What is a a tissue of tubular vessels that move water?
cambium
What is the difference between vascular cambium and interfasicular cambium?
vascular cambium produces secondary phloes and secondary xylem. interfascicular cambium are been between vascular bundles in near stems.
What is the growth of tissue that produces phloem and xylem in the stems of woody plants?
woody stems have more xylem than soft stems
What is the difference between vascular cambium and cork cambium?
The vascular cambium adds to secondary xylem and secondary phloem while the cork cambium gives rise to cork and secondary cortex. The vascular cambium is a remnant of the apical meristem while the cork cambium is a true secondary meristem which develops outside the vascular tissues.
