What would happen when the most invasive plant grows in the forest?

Will planting sweet potatoes in a kudzu field kill kudzu?
Planting sweet potatoes in a kudzu field will not effectively kill kudzu. Kudzu is a highly resilient and aggressive vine that can outcompete other plants for resources. While sweet potatoes may grow alongside kudzu, they are unlikely to eliminate it; instead, both plants may coexist, with kudzu potentially overshadowing the sweet potatoes. Effective control of kudzu typically requires targeted management strategies, such as mechanical removal or herbicide application.

Can kudzu grow in arid climates?
Kudzu typically thrives in warm, humid environments and is not well-suited for arid climates due to its high water requirements. While it can tolerate some drought, its growth and spread would be significantly limited in dry conditions. In areas with insufficient moisture, kudzu may struggle to establish and survive long-term. Therefore, it is not commonly found in arid regions.
What is in a kudzu plant cell?
A kudzu plant cell would contain the typical organelles found in plant cells, such as a nucleus, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, and chloroplasts. Additionally, it would have a cell wall made of cellulose for structure and support.
