1. Trees close to water sources can be killed due to the feeding habits of beaver. The beaver may not fell the tree, but the tree may be killed when the beaver feeds on the bark and deeper plant tissues of the tree trunk. To which tissue is the beaver most likely doing damage that causes the tree to die? a. Vascular cambium d. Primary phloem b. Cork e. Bark c. Cork cambium
