What is the difference between primary and secondary growth?
Primary growth is the lengthening of the stem and roots. All plant growth occurs by cell division and cell elongation. Cell division occurs primarily in regions of undifferentiated cells known as meristems. Cell division in the apical meristems and subsequent elongation and maturation of the new cells produces primary growth." on the other hand, secondary growth is the result of the activity of the vascular cambium. The latter is a meristem that divides to produce secondary xylem cells on the inside of the meristem (the adaxial side) and secondary phloem cells on the outside (the abaxial side). This growth increases the girth of the plant root or stem, rather than its length, hence the phrase "secondary thickening". As long as the vascular cambium continues to produce new cells, the stem or root will continue to grow in diameter. In woody plants, this process produces wood.

What is the main difference between the outside and inside of bone?
The main difference between the outside and inside of bone is; the inside of a bone is bone mallow, whereas the outside of a bone is covered by flesh.
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.

What is inside when it is outside and what is outside when it is inside?
A door is a common object that fits this description. When a door is closed, it appears as a solid barrier on the outside but allows entry to the inside. When the door is open, the inside becomes visible from the outside, blurring the distinction between the two spaces.
