What does the primary growth of plant add and while secondary growth adds?
Primary Growth adds height, while secondary growth adds Girth.
Do Woody plants lack secondary growth?
Primary growth is responsible for elongating the plant. In woody plants, primary growth is then followed by secondary growth which allows the plant stem to increase in thickness or girth.
What part of a plant produces secondary growth?
Meristematic tissue (vascular cambium) produces secondary growth. In plant stems, this serves to increase the diameter, and it forms between the primary xylem and phloem.
What is the result of secondary growth in dicot plants?
It shows the number of years of the plant and enhance the rigidity of the plant.
Does plant growth occur at the lateral buds?
Lateral buds develop generally when apical dominance is terminated
What does the primary growth of plant add and while secondary growth adds?
Primary Growth adds height, while secondary growth adds Girth.
What is difference between primary growth and secondary growth?
Primary growth is when the stem or root of a plant gets lengthens, and secondary growth is when the stem/root gets thicker.

What is the result of secondary growth in dicot plants?
It shows the number of years of the plant and enhance the rigidity of the plant.
Do all angiosperms undergo secondary growth?
No, most monocots (which fall under flowering plants) do not undergo secondary growth due to the fact that they lack vascular cambium.
Does plant growth occur at the lateral buds?
Lateral buds develop generally when apical dominance is terminated
What does the cambium do for the plant?
It increases the girth of the stem......................
What type of growth does cell produced by the vascular cambium increase the diameter of a plant's stem?
secondary xylem
What effect could a cold winter with little precipitation have on the primary and secondary growth of a tree?
The effect that a cold winter with little precipitation might have a negative effect on the primary and secondary growth of a tree because the lack of water and harsh weather conditions aren't too good for trees. Primary and secondary growth is continued for as long as a tree/plant survives. But if the tree doesn't survive, primary and secondary growth no longer happen.
Compounds that are not essential for basic plant growth and development but are involved with their ability to survive environmental conditions are called?
secondary metabolites
How does the stem be more stronger to support the plant?
Formation of stele as a result of secondary growth makes the stem more stronger
