Definition
| Add girth to the plant, by producing secondary vascular tissue and periderm. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Secondary meristematic tissues that produce the xylem and the phloem. Cause the plant to get girthier. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition

|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Produces cork cells. Secondary growth eliminates the epidermis which was created in primary growth, and replaces it with a tougher, more protective surface called cork. |

| Tendencies in the flow of water: |
|
Definition
| Flow from high water potential to low water potential. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Water Potential= Water potential due to pressure+ Water POtential die to solute concentration |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Extensions of the root's epidermal tissue, increases surface area, and thus absorbtion. |
