If we flop around we may be able to arrive at an answer. It's kinda like taking a soccer ball upfield; we wind our way around defenders and arrive at a place where we can put the ball in the net. Let's see if we can. Rubber is elastic. This amazing material is produced in a wide range "types" having broad differences in their mechanical properties. In general, when we stretch or compress rubber, it will return to its shape when we're done. The tiniest failures of its structure do occur, and they build up in time, but, in general, the rubber returns to its previous state. Unless we overload it. When we apply stress to rubber, its molecules change dimension. Some may be permanently deformed or "broken" by this action. The more severe the load (stress) on rubber, the more permanent "microfailures" occur within its structure. As the number of "bad" areas increases, the rubber weakens in the region, and things get worse more quickly as it cannot flex (deform) as well as it used to. The rubber so affected is sometimes referred to as having undergone crystallization. That rubber has undergone stress induced crystallization.

How is winter wheat able to survive the cold temperatures of winter without serious cell damage?

Cold hardy plants acclimatize by shifting cellular contents and altering metabolic processes as temperatures drop. Water content is shifted out of cells so freezing crystallization is extracellular. Protective stress induced proteins that alter enzyme function in cold are expressed. Oxidative stress induced antioxidents are expressed. Endodormancy genes exist to be up regulated for acclimation and deacclimation as the plant goes into winter dormancy and comes out of dormancy.
