Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Wood is secondary xylem and often characterized as “dead tissue” because the conduits for water transport-vessels and tracheids-are dead at maturity, as are the fiber cells in many angiosperms.
Detailed explanation-2: -Injured xylem will carry less water to the branches and leaves. Both of these problems limit the supply of vitally needed water and salts to the leaves. Plants that had little time to prepare for cold temperatures will be more severely injured than those that cooled more slowly.
