Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -C: The cambium cell layer is the growing part of the trunk. It annually produces new bark and new wood in response to hormones that pass down through the phloem with food from the leaves. These hormones, called “auxins”, stimulate growth in cells.
Detailed explanation-2: -Cell division by the cambium produces cells that become secondary xylem and phloem. As secondary phloem and xylem tissue accumulates, it both increases the girth of the stem and forms wood and bark.
Detailed explanation-3: -Cambium: The thin layer of living cells just inside the bark is called cambium. It is the part of the tree that makes new cells allowing the tree to grow wider each year.
