If New York experiences drought conditions during April, May, and June 2022, how would you expect local tree rings to differ compared to rings made in 2021 (which had normal rainfall)?     Early wood cells would be larger in 2022, creating thicker rings     Late wood cells would be larger in 2022, creating thicker rings     Early wood cells would be smaller in 2022, creating thinner rings     Late wood cells would be smaller in 2022, creating thinner rings     Rings would be similar both years as water amount has little effect during spring and early summer
