How girth of stem increase from year to year?

The girth of a plant stem increases primarily through a process called secondary growth, which occurs in woody plants. This growth results from the activity of the vascular cambium, a layer of meristematic tissue that produces new cells. As the cambium divides, it generates new xylem (wood) cells on the inside and phloem (bark) cells on the outside, leading to an increase in the stem's diameter each year. The growth rings that form can be seen in cross-sections of the stem, indicating annual growth patterns.


What is the difference between length and girth?

Length is usually a measure of distance in a straight line. Girth is the distance around a [solid] object.


What is the unit of measurement for girth?

Girth is simply the distance around something. In math classes and Physics labs it's called 'perimeter', but that's too many syllables for the fast-paced worlds of the post office and cargo shipment, so they prefer the 300-year-old word for the distance the saddle band has to go around the horse's belly. Girth is just a length, so it can be expressed in any unit of length measurement. Again, this could just as well be meters, centimeters, inches, feet, yards, etc., but I suspect there are still freight forwarders measuring the girth of their cargo in furlongs, fathoms, stadia, rods, leagues and cubits.

Why is tree bark in pieces?

Tree bark containing of dead cells does not grow in girth with the increasing diameter of the stem hence it is seen in small pieces around the stem.


Increases in stem length occur at the?

Increases in stem length occur at the apical meristem, which is a region of cell division located at the tip of the stem. This meristem is responsible for producing new cells that contribute to the growth and elongation of the stem.

Why is the stem of terrestial plants strong?

The stem of terrestrial plants are strong to support themselves as they grow upward. Without this physical characteristic, they would simply fall over after growing a few inches.


What tissue separates cortex from pith in older alfalfa stem?

The vascular cambium separates the cortex from the pith in older alfalfa stem. It is responsible for secondary growth, producing xylem toward the inside and phloem toward the outside, contributing to the stem's increased girth.
