Detailed explanation-1: -The cambuim is a section of cells in a plant that can become either part of the xylem or phloem, depending on the growth and needs of the plant. If the cambium of a particular plant was damaged, what would be the most likely effect on the plant? A. The plant would lose its ability to carry out photosynthesis.
Detailed explanation-2: -cambium, plural Cambiums, orCambia, in plants, layer of actively dividing cells between xylem (wood) and phloem (bast) tissues that is responsible for the secondary growth of stems and roots (secondary growth occurs after the first season and results in increase in thickness).
Detailed explanation-3: -The cambium is defined as the actively dividing layer of cells that lies between, and gives rise to the secondary xylem and phloem. From: Secondary Xylem Biology, 2016.
Detailed explanation-4: -The cambium present between primary xylem and primary phloem is called the intrafascicular cambium (within vascular bundles).
Detailed explanation-5: -Cambium refers to the slender plant membrane located right underneath the bark of a woody tree or plant. The cambium has several functions. In woody plants, it produces layers of xylem and phloem, consequently enhancing the stem’s diameter. It also encourages the secondary growth of roots and stems.
