Chapter 35, Problem 5TYU
Summary Introduction
Introduction: In plants, the growth occurs throughout their life. This is because in plants, there is the presence of meristems. These meristematic cells divide continuously and lead to the formation of new cells, which are further elongated and differentiated. The secondary growth of the plant tissues that arises at cylinders of the lateral meristem runs lengthwise through older stem and roots. Vascular cambium and cork cambium are the two lateral meristems.

Why is it that the wall of the epidermis in the root area has no cuticle and has thin walls?
Why does a layer of periderm offer only temporary protection? When the plant makes a new layer of cork cambium, does it make the new layer to the outer side of the failing periderm or to the inner side of it, deeper in thesecondary phloem?
Why is the secondary xylem and phloem always to either side of the vascular cambium?
Is the primary xylem pushed inwardly by the secondary tissues?
Are the primary phloem, cortex and epidermis pushed outward by the secondary tissues?
