<h2>Xylem;phloem and cork</h2>
Explanation:
Wood is mainly known as secondary xylem found in trees
- Xylem is basically the vascular tissue which is responsible for the conduction of water and nutrients from the roots to shoots and leaves
- 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
The SECOND graph represents selection that may lead to reduced variation. It is an example of stabilizing selection.
<h3>What is Stabilizing selection? </h3>
Stabilizing selection is a type of natural selection that leads to a decrease in the genetic variation of the population.
In Stabilizing selection, natural selection tends to favor an average phenotype and then can remove (select) extreme variations.
Stabilizing selection generates a modified bell curve graph in which the central portion is narrower and it is taller than the normal distribution bell shape.
