<h2>Xylem;phloem and cork</h2>

Explanation:

  • Secondary xylem is formed from secondary growth and is associated with lateral growth and grows from the vascular cambium
  • Its cell walls are thickened by deposition of lignin which provides mechanical support to plants and consists of tracheids and vessels that are shorter and wider
  • In large woody plants secondary xylem get differentiated into heartwood and sapwood

Bark is essentially made of phloem and cork

  • Bark sole purpose is to provide protection to trees
  • The inner bark is produced by vascular cambium which consists of secondary phloem whose innermost layer transports food from the leaves to rest of the plant
  • The outer bark is a dead tissue which is the product of cork cambium
