More often than not it is very hard to make decisions about economic development and the environment and manage to balance them so that both of them are in the desired position. The problem is that almost always the economic development depends on destroying parts of the environment, so often the choice is to either to stagnate on an economical basis and protect the environment, or push for economic development and destroy parts of the environment. This is very often a conflict situation, and in the last decades with the bigger awareness about the nature it is becoming even harder a decision to be made.
Answer: The tissue(s) that George destroyed was (were) probably the PHLOEM.
and the tissue that Goege left undisturbed was (were) the XYLEM.
A PHLOEM tissue is the vascular tissue in land plants primarily responsible for the distribution of sugars and nutrients manufactured in the shoot.
A XYLEM tissue is the vascular tissue in land plants primarily responsible for the distribution of water and minerals taken up by the roots; also the primary component of wood.
As can be deduced from both definitions, removal of the phloem will ultimately lead to the death of the plant because the phloem is primarily responsible for the distribution of sugars and nutrients manufactured in the shoot.
The 1st United States Congress, comprising the United States Senate and the United States House of Representatives, met from March 4, 1789, to March 4, 1791, during the first two years of George Washington's presidency, first at Federal Hall in New York City and later at Congress Hall in Philadelphia. With the initial meeting of the First Congress, the United States federal government officially began operations under the new (and current) frame of government established by the 1787 Constitution. The apportionment of seats in the House of Representatives was based on the provisions of Article I, Section 2, Clause 3 of the Constitution. Both chambers had a Pro-Administration majority. Twelve articles of amendment to the Constitution were passed by this Congress and sent to the states for ratification; the ten ratified as additions to the Constitution on December 15, 1791, are collectively known as the Bill of Rights, with an additional amendment ratified more than two centuries later to become the Twenty-seventh Amendment to the United States Constitution. Hope this helped!
